Power pole FAQs
How long does a private power pole replacement take?
It depends on site access, the condition of the existing pole and the requirements of your energy provider. After we assess your site, we give you a clear timeframe before any work starts.
Who is responsible for a private power pole?
In most cases the property owner is responsible for a private pole and the supply line that runs from it to the property. We can inspect yours and confirm what applies to your situation.
Do I need a Level 2 ASP electrician?
Work that connects to the electricity network needs an accredited Level 2 ASP. High Demand Electrical is a Level 2 ASP, so we can handle the job from assessment through to reconnection and commissioning.
Do you handle emergencies like a fallen pole?
Yes. We are available 24/7 across Sydney. If a pole is down or damaged, call 0411 719 093.
