Level 2 Electrician Castle Hill

The meter box is on the wall where the new extension is going. Or the overhead line crosses the spot the pool fence needs. In Castle Hill and across the Hills, extensions, pools and knockdown-rebuilds regularly run into the property’s electricity supply. ERIS is a Level 2 Accredited Service Provider on the Endeavour Energy network. We relocate meter boxes, replace consumer mains, convert overhead supply to underground and manage the disconnection for rebuilds. We also replace private poles on larger rural-residential blocks further out in the Hills.

When Your Plans Clash With the Power Supply

If building work covers, encloses or demolishes the wall holding your meter box, or puts a structure under the overhead service line, the supply has to be relocated before or during the build. That’s Level 2 work, because it involves the connection to the network.

Common clashes on Hills projects:

• An extension built over the existing meter box position
• A pool, cabana or garage under or near the overhead line
• A second storey that changes the clearance to the service line
• A knockdown-rebuild that needs the old supply removed
• A new driveway or retaining wall over the underground cable route

Moving the Meter Box or Going Underground

Relocating a meter box means rerouting the consumer mains to the new position, reconnecting the metering and making sure the box still meets access rules. Often it makes sense to convert the overhead service to underground at the same time, so the line never needs to move again.

Talk to us at the design stage. A meter box placed well on the plans is far simpler than one moved after the walls are up, and it gives your builder one less thing to sort out mid-build.

Level 2 Services Around Castle Hill

Meter relocation and metering

We move meter boxes for extensions and rebuilds, and install new and replacement meters. For details, see our metering services.

Overhead to underground conversions

We install the conduit and consumer mains from the connection point to the meter box and complete the changeover. You can find details about our underground power installation.

Disconnection for knockdown-rebuilds

The old supply is disconnected and made safe before demolition, and a temporary builders supply keeps the site powered until the new home is connected.

Private poles on rural-residential blocks

Properties toward Glenhaven, Kenthurst and Dural often have their own poles and long overhead runs. We replace and relocate private power poles in timber, steel or concrete.

Supply upgrades for larger homes

Large homes with ducted air conditioning, pools and EV chargers sometimes need upgraded consumer mains or a move to three-phase supply. If you’re already relocating the meter box, it’s the simplest moment to size the mains for what you’ll add later.

Who Can Move a Meter Box?

Moving a meter box involves the consumer mains and metering, which connect to the Endeavour Energy network. That makes it Level 2 work. ERIS holds Level 2 ASP Licence 3022 and Electrical Contractor Licence 204698C, and can also handle the switchboard work that goes with it.
