Power Disconnection & Reconnection — Sydney Level 2 Electrician

Disconnecting and reconnecting a property to the electricity network — for a renovation, demolition, re-roof, tree work, or a switchboard or meter upgrade — is Level 2 ASP work. Sydney Electrical Service is a licensed Ausgrid Level 2 ASP (licence 236351C). We carry out temporary disconnections and reconnections, permanent supply abolishments, and the disconnect/reconnect around other electrical works, across Sydney, 24/7 — and lodge the Certificate of Compliance where required.

What's Involved

Disconnection and reconnection work we handle as a Level 2 ASP:

• Temporary disconnection so trades can work safely — re-roofing, rendering, demolition, extensions, tree removal near the lines.
• Reconnection after the works are complete.
• Supply abolishment — permanently and safely removing the supply (for a knock-down or where a service is no longer needed).
• Disconnect & reconnect around switchboard upgrades, meter relocations and service work.
• Service-fuse work on the network side as part of the disconnection.

Because we’re a Level 2 ASP, we can isolate at the network — work a general electrician isn’t authorised to do — so your project isn’t held up waiting on a separate network crew.

Reasons to Use This Service

• Licensed Ausgrid Level 2 ASP (236351C) — authorised to disconnect from and reconnect to the network.
• We work in with your builder, roofer or renderer's schedule to minimise downtime.
• Temporary disconnection, reconnection and permanent abolishment all handled.
• 24/7 availability and a Certificate of Compliance (CCEW) where required.

Our Process

1. Confirm the works. We check what's being done and what needs isolating, and when.
2. Fixed-price quote. Disconnect, reconnect or both, scheduled to your program.
3. Safe disconnection. We isolate the supply at the network so trades can work safely.
4. Reconnection. Once works are complete we reconnect and energise.
5. Test & certify. We test the reconnection and lodge the CCEW where required.

NSW Compliance

Disconnecting from and reconnecting to the network — and abolishing a supply — are Level 2 Accredited Service Provider (ASP) functions under the NSW network rules. Sydney Electrical Service is an accredited Ausgrid Level 2 ASP (licence 236351C). The work follows Ausgrid’s service and installation rules, and a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) is lodged where the works require it.

Pricing Approach

We quote disconnections and reconnections as a fixed price, and where a job needs both (e.g. disconnect for a re-roof, reconnect after) we scope them together. Call 0433 462 902 for a fixed-price quote and we’ll fit in with your trades’ schedule.

Sydney-Specific Considerations

Re-roofing, rendering and second-storey additions are constant across Sydney’s older suburbs, and most need the service temporarily disconnected so roofers and renderers can work safely near the lines. We schedule the disconnect and reconnect around your builder’s program so the job keeps moving.

How This Service Is Delivered

1. Plan the disconnection
   Re-roofing, rendering or demolition near the lines needs a Level 2 disconnect — book ahead to suit your trades.
2. Don't let a non-Level-2 do it
   Only an accredited Level 2 provider can disconnect from the network. A general electrician can't.
3. Book the disconnect (and reconnect)
   Call 0433 462 902 — we schedule both around your builder's program.
4. We isolate, then reconnect & certify
   We isolate at the network, your trades work safely, then we reconnect, test and certify.
