Level 2 electricians handle work standard electricians can't. Here's what they do and when to call one.

Not all electrical work can be done by a standard licensed electrician. Some jobs require a specially accredited Level 2 ASP (Authorised Service Provider) electrician.

What Level 2 Electricians Do

They work on the network side of your property — the connection between your home and the street. This includes overhead service lines, underground supply, and meter connections.

Common Level 2 Jobs

Typical work includes new or upgraded electricity connections, meter box relocations, service line repairs after storm damage, and disconnecting/reconnecting supply for renovations.

Why It's Different

This work involves the network operator's live infrastructure, which is why it requires additional accreditation beyond a standard electrical licence.
