Overhead and Underground Connections
Level 2 support for overhead and underground power connections
Power Poles NSW supports private overhead and underground power connection works for homes, rural properties, commercial sites and construction projects across NSW.
Some sites need a simple overhead service connection. Others need underground consumer mains, a changed supply route, a new point of attachment or connection works linked to a private pole. The team can assess the site, explain the practical options and coordinate the pole and Level 2 electrical works required for the connection pathway
Overhead and underground connection scenarios
Connection works may be needed when a property is being built, upgraded, relocated, repaired or changed from one supply arrangement to another.
Overhead connection
For private poles, service lines and overhead supply arrangements between the property and the electricity network.
Underground connection
For sites where underground consumer mains or a concealed supply route is preferred or required.
The supply route
For renovations, driveways, access changes, subdivisions or site works that affect the existing power pathway.
Level 2 coordination
For connection, disconnection, reconnection, service mains or other accredited electrical works.
The right connection pathway depends on the site.
Power Poles NSW can help assess whether overhead or underground connection works are the better fit for your property, access and project requirements.
