Level 2 Electrician Busby

A Level 2 ASP Electrician is capable of fixing more complex electrical issues, especially those pieces of equipment directly connected to a live network. However, this additional certification is only awarded to those who are already licensed and insured with NSW Fair Trading. Public utilities Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy and Essential Energy give out ASP (Accredited & Authorised Service Provider) qualification as mandated by the Electricity Supply Act 1995. This qualification allows electricians to choose between three different levels. Those with Level 2 ASP qualifications are allowed to work on the main electrical supply network. It means that they can disconnect and reconnect service lines at the point of attachment, work on overhead service conductors and work on network service equipment. 

Electrical Defect Notice

By selecting to work with our L2 electricians, homeowners in Busby are guaranteed ease of mind when dealing with an electrical defect notice. NSW and Australian law requires that electricity providers, like Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy, conduct regular inspections of their customers’ premises to ensure safety. This notice lists all the needed repairs or replacements on pieces of equipment under the property owner’s responsibility. Upgrades of the electrical switchboard and the consumer main, low-hanging power lines and worn-out private power poles are common issues found during these inspections. It is best to have an electrician level 2 come over and take a look at the list despite the 21-day allowance given to have everything taken care of.

Consumer Main Upgrade

The consumer main supplies power to the whole building. Also known as supply cables, this equipment is located in the main electrical switchboard and should be at its optimal state at all times. While old consumer mains are still capable of handling energy demands, continuous use can lead to fire hazards, electrocution and power outages. Additionally, homes that are using Vulcanised Indian Rubber (VIR) cables are also under threat of the health consequences associated with asbestos. Our Level 2 Electrical Contractors recommend an upgrade to the Cross-Linked Polyethylene (XLPE) consumer main. This new version offers several benefits, including better insulation and increased elongation and tensile strength. 

Private Power Poles

Private power poles allow property owners to dictate how overhead power lines will enter their building. However, this piece of equipment needs regular maintenance to ensure the safe delivery of electricity from the street pole into the property. When Busby residents need a “Level 2 Electrician near me,” we are just a phone call away. We can help remove vegetation creeping into the private pole, replacing a worn-out private pole and fixing fallen private power poles.
