Pole Upgrades and Relocations
Move or upgrade your private power pole with confidence
Power Poles NSW helps property owners, builders and project teams relocate, upgrade and replace private power poles when a site layout or power requirement changes.
Whether you are widening a driveway, building an extension, adding a shed, improving site access or upgrading an old pole, the work needs to be planned around safety, clearances, access and connection requirements. The team can assess the existing setup, recommend the right pole location or upgrade pathway and complete the related pole and Level 2 electrical works where required
Pole upgrade and relocation scenarios
Pole upgrades and relocations are often needed when the existing private pole position, condition or capacity no longer suits the way the property is being used.
Pole relocated
For driveways, access changes, extensions, new structures, landscaping or site works that conflict with the existing pole location.
Property upgrades
For renovations, sheds, secondary dwellings, subdivisions or commercial improvements that need a better power setup.
Old or unsuitable pole
For poles that are outdated, poorly located, too low, deteriorating or no longer suitable for the property.
Connection coordination
For relocation or upgrade work that also involves overhead lines, service mains or Level 2 electrical requirements.
A better pole location can make future work simpler.
Power Poles NSW can assess the existing setup, explain the options and help plan a relocation or upgrade that suits the property.
