Local Level 2 Electricians You Can Rely On
Metering Services Sydney
Emergency Storm Damage Repairs Sydney
Your electricity meter is the bridge between your power usage and your energy provider. Whether you’re upgrading your system, switching to solar, or responding to an Electrical Defect Notice, ensuring your meter is installed and configured correctly is essential for safety, compliance, and accurate billing.
At Brian Brothers Electrical, we specialise in metering services Sydney wide. Our team of Level 2 ASP electricians is fully authorised to carry out meter installations, meter upgrades, meter removals, and meter relocations for both residential and commercial properties across the region. As certified providers under Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy, we ensure all work is done to strict Australian standards.
Why Metering Work Requires a Level 2 Electrician
Working on a meter involves live electrical connections to the grid, and this is not a job for a general electrician. Only a certified Accredited Service Provider (ASP) can legally and safely perform metering services in NSW. A Level 2 electrician has the skills, tools, and authorisation required to disconnect and reconnect service mains, install or upgrade meters, and submit formal compliance paperwork to your distributor.
When you choose Brian Brothers Electrical, you’re choosing a team of professionals who are not only fully licensed but also regularly trained in line with changes to distributor protocols and compliance regulations. Whether you’re:
- Installing a new meter for a home extension
- Relocating a meter for better accessibility
- Replacing a damaged or outdated meter
- Upgrading to a solar-compatible smart meter
- Responding to an Electrical Defect Notice for non-compliant metering
…we guarantee that your job will be handled promptly, correctly, and safely.
Triggers for a Metering Upgrade or Inspection
You might not think about your meter often, but a number of events can trigger the need for a professional assessment, upgrade, or repair:
- You’ve received an Electrical Defect Notice for non-compliance
- Your meter is outdated, broken, or not recording data correctly
- You’re upgrading from single-phase to three-phase supply
- You’re adding high-demand electrical loads (e.g., EV chargers, ducted air con)
- You’re installing a solar power system that requires a net meter
- You’re subdividing a property and need multiple metering points
- You’ve noticed unusually high electricity bills and suspect metering inaccuracy
In these cases, action is not optional, failure to address issues can result in fines, disconnection, or denied building approvals.
Types of Metering Services We Offer
We offer a wide range of metering services in Sydney to suit every property type and electrical configuration.
New Meter Installation
If you’re building a new home, duplex, granny flat, or commercial unit, you’ll need a new meter installed that matches your distributor’s guidelines. We handle both single-phase and three-phase meter installations, and can advise on the most appropriate configuration based on your future electrical demand. We also coordinate directly with Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy to register your metering point and ensure a seamless connection to the grid.
Meter Box Relocation
In many older properties, meter boxes are located in places that are no longer accessible or compliant with updated codes. We provide meter relocation services for properties undergoing renovations, subdivisions, or access upgrades. We ensure all reconnections, service fuses, and consumer mains are properly protected and labelled after relocation.
Smart Meter Upgrades
We replace outdated analogue meters with modern smart meters that offer real-time tracking, solar system compatibility, and better load management. If you’re planning to install solar panels or need to monitor electricity usage more precisely, a smart meter is a must. Our Level 2 electricians will manage the swap, configure the system with your energy provider, and ensure proper data transmission.
Meter Removal
We are authorised to safely disconnect and remove meters from properties slated for demolition or redevelopment. We also assist with removing secondary or redundant meters from properties with consolidated services.
Temporary Builder’s Supply Meters
During construction or major renovations, you may need power before the permanent meter is installed. We provide temporary builder’s supply meters to ensure your site has safe and legal access to electricity throughout the project. We take care of all permits, installations, and compliance forms.
The Metering Process: Step by Step
When you engage Brian Brothers Electrical for metering services, you receive a structured, professional experience from beginning to end. Our typical workflow includes:
- Initial Assessment: We review your current metering setup and determine the scope of works required, based on site layout, load demand, and distributor requirements.
- Planning & Documentation: We lodge a Notice of Service Work (NOSW) with your distributor, and where needed, coordinate with builders or electricians on site to ensure smooth integration with your system.
- Site Preparation: We secure the worksite, shut off supply where needed, and prepare the meter panel or switchboard for installation or modification.
- Metering Work: Our electricians carry out the install, removal, upgrade, or relocation using tested and certified equipment. We follow all relevant NSW safety codes and AS/NZS 3000 standards.
- Testing & Certification: Once complete, we issue a Certificate of Compliance for Electrical Work (CCEW) and submit this to both the customer and the distributor.
- Post-Service Follow-Up: We perform final system checks, re-energise the supply if disconnected, and advise you on best practices for meter and switchboard safety.
