Level 2 Disconnection &  Reconnection Services

Disconnection and reconnection services ensure that your electrical supply is safely isolated and restored when work is carried out on your property. These services must be completed by a licensed Level 2 electrician who is authorised to work on overhead and underground service lines. Fraser Electrical provides reliable and compliant disconnection and reconnection services across the Central Coast. We safely disconnect supply for building work, renovations and electrical upgrades and reconnect your property once the installation is ready.

A safe disconnection prevents electrical hazards during construction and ensures trades can work on your site without risk. Once the work is complete a proper reconnection restores power in line with Ausgrid and NSW Service and Installation Rules. Our team has extensive experience providing safe, timely and compliant disconnection and reconnection services for homes, businesses and development sites.

What Disconnection & Reconnection Services Involve

Disconnection and reconnection involve isolating the electrical supply at the point where the network connects to the property. Only Level 2 electricians can legally carry out this work because it involves live service lines and network equipment.

  • Permanent disconnections for demolition
  • Safe reconnection after electrical upgrades
  • Meter and switchboard related disconnections
  • Overhead and underground line disconnection

Our Disconnection & Reconnection Process

We follow a structured process to ensure all work is completed safely and in line with required standards.

1
Initial Assessment

We review the project requirements to determine whether a temporary or permanent disconnection is needed and confirm what work is to be carried out on the property.

2
Planning and Coordination

We organise the necessary paperwork and coordinate with Ausgrid and your energy retailer if required.

3
Safe Disconnection

We isolate the incoming supply at the property boundary or connection point. For overhead supply this involves work on the service line and point of attachment. For underground supply the connection is isolated at the pit or pillar.

4
Electrical Work Undertaken

Once the property is safely disconnected your trades or our team complete the required work such as switchboard upgrades, renovations or meter installations.

5
Reconnection

When the installation is ready we reconnect the service line and restore supply. We ensure all wiring, meters and switchboard components meet compliance requirements.

6
Testing and Verification

We complete safety checks, confirm correct voltage supply and test protection devices before the supply is activated.

7
Documentation

We provide confirmation of the disconnection and reconnection and notify the relevant parties if required.

This methodical approach ensures all services are completed safely and your electrical supply is restored without issues.

Compliance & Safety

Safety and Compliance Requirements

Because disconnection and reconnection involve direct interaction with the electrical network, this work must be completed by Level 2 Accredited Service Providers.

Fraser Electrical ensures all work complies with:

  • NSW Service and Installation Rules

We use approved equipment and follow strict procedures to ensure the installation remains safe before, during and after reconnection.

Temporary vs Permanent Disconnections

Temporary Disconnection

Used for:

  • Renovations
  • Electrical upgrades
  • Meter relocation

  • Construction projects

The supply is safely isolated and reconnected once the work is complete.

Permanent Disconnection

Once disconnected the property has no electrical supply until a new service connection is installed.
