Why do I have a private power pole?
A private power pole is installed when your property sits too far from the street for a direct network connection, carrying the supply the rest of the way from the network's point of supply to your home. It looks just like a street pole, but once it's on your side of that connection point, it's your asset and your responsibility.
Who is responsible for the power line from the pole to the house in NSW?
The property owner is responsible for everything from the point of supply onward, including the private pole and the service line running to the house. The network provider only owns the infrastructure up to that connection point out in the street.
Who is responsible for replacing power poles?
Poles in the street belong to the network provider, but poles within your property boundary are private poles, making replacement the property owner's responsibility. This work can only be carried out by a licensed Level 2 electrician, get in touch for a free quote if you've received a defect notice.
