Damaged or outdated point of attachment brackets are a common cause of defect notices. We replace non-compliant or corroded attachments with approved rafter or fascia-mounted brackets, ensuring secure and safe connections to the overhead mains.
Cracked, undersized or deteriorated consumer mains, as well as broken connection boxes, can be dangerous. We replace old cabling with compliant XLPE insulated cable and install new connection enclosures that meet network standards.
Missing or incorrect Meter Protection Devices and Service Fuses can lead to compliance issues or fire risks. We install certified MPDs and fuse holders according to the requirements of both Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy.
Old porcelain fuses or rusted holders often need replacement. We upgrade these with modern, sealed fuse systems that are safer and easier to maintain, ensuring the safe disconnection point required by NSW regulations.
If your property lacks an MPD installation or has one that’s not properly installed, we’ll replace it with an approved model, ensuring correct mounting, polarity, and safe clearances from the meter and other components.
Defect notices often result from old ceramic fuse boxes or switchboards with asbestos backing panels. We offer full switchboard upgrades from old electrical fuse boxes including new RCBOs, RCDs, circuit breakers, and safe, compliant panels.
Many older meter boxes contain dangerous asbestos panels. Our Level 2 electricians safely remove these panels under strict procedures and install new fire-rated, compliant backing boards made of bakelite or other approved materials.
When your energy retailer installs a smart meter, they may flag existing wiring or metering panels as defective. We perform all required wiring upgrades, panel replacements, and meter relocations to ensure compatibility and compliance.
