Disconnect/Reconnect
Electricity can be extremely dangerous, so to ensure your safety and the safety of workers on your property, you may need to disconnect your electrical supply for a short duration while undertaking work.
Temporary disconnection keeps everyone safe when working close to underground or overhead service cables and should only be requested when you will need your electricity supply to be reconnected in the near future.
Whether you are trimming trees that are growing near wires or poles, moving or upgrading your meter box, repairing overhead or underground cables or installing a power pole on your property, it is important that you make safety your primary focus. Before working on or near any electrical equipment on your property, you will need to arrange a temporary disconnection of your power supply.
If you require the power supply to be disconnected for more than 10 days, this requires a permanent disconnection.
