24/7 Emergency Services

A service fuse is usually mounted where an overhead power cable attaches to a property. It is designed to protect power supply cables during major faults in your electrical installation.
A blown service fuse is often the cause of power loss to an individual property and requires replacement, which we can provide quickly and safely at any time of day.

Ceramic barge fuses are mounted at the point of attachment of your property. These fuse holders have been around for quite some time and over the years, the electrical contact between the fuse and fuse holder can become weak. This creates a ‘hot joint’, where there is small arcing between the two surfaces which heats up and ultimately fails.

A barge board is a timber block mounted at the front of a property where your overhead service attaches to. These timber blocks can fail overtime due to timber rot. If your timber block is split or rotten, it will require replacing soon rather than later.

It is the responsibility of the property owner to ensure your private power pole is regularly inspected and safely maintained.
Both steel and timber power poles have a certain lifespan and may incur damage such as rust, termites/rot or other issues, requiring urgent repair and replacement, which our team can assist with.

A Mains Connection Box, or MCB, is designed to house and protect electrical connections from damage or contact. Over time, these can become faulty or damaged which can become a major safety hazard.

A Point of Attachment is the first point of electricity supply to the system, and the location at which an overhead cable is connected to the property. As an integral part of the system, any issue, fault or wear and tear must be repaired immediately.

Overhead service cables can become slack or damaged. Whether a high vehicle has struck the mains cable, strong wind has caused the cables to become detached from the network pole or a storm has caused damage to them, we have the expertise and ability to reattach or replace your overhead service mains.

An RCD is a sensitive safety device designed to break an electrical circuit to protect you against the risk of electrocution. If it detects irregularities within your electrical circuit, the RCD will automatically shut off power.

Property owners are responsible for maintaining all privately owed pole and service lines. Ausgrid provide defect notices to customers when installations do not comply with Ausgrid’s Network Standards. You must have the defect rectified within 21 days of issue, otherwise your power may be cut off by Ausgrid. Our team of Level 2 Electricians can help repair the defect.
