Frequently Asked Questions
Why do I need to upgrade my electricity meter?
Common reasons include adding solar panels (requires solar-compatible or smart meter), upgrading to 3-phase power, installing a large EV charger, or accessing time-of-use tariffs that require a smart meter capable of recording half-hourly usage.
What is a Level 2 ASP electrician?
Level 2 Accredited Service Provider (ASP) electricians are licensed to work on the metering equipment, service mains and network connection points owned by Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy — the parts of the electrical system that regular licensed electricians cannot legally touch.
How long does a meter upgrade take in Sydney?
Most meter upgrades take 2–4 hours, including the network disconnection and reconnection. Power is off only during the active changeover period. We schedule to minimise disruption.
Do I need council approval for a meter upgrade?
No council approval is needed — however, Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy notification and approval is required, which we handle on your behalf as an approved ASP.
Can you upgrade my meter for solar installation?
Yes — we coordinate meter upgrades for solar installations, ensuring your meter can record both import and solar export accurately. We work directly with your solar installer and the network operator.
