AUSGRID METER UPGRADES

Upgrading your electricity meter on the Ausgrid network is Level 2 ASP work. Whether your existing meter is old, faulty, or being replaced as part of a switchboard or supply upgrade, Sydney Power Group handles the metering side across the Ausgrid supply area and lodges the compliance so your meter data flows correctly.

When You Need a Meter Upgrade

Common triggers include a failed or ageing meter, a switchboard upgrade, moving to a smart meter, adding solar, or upgrading to three-phase supply. Many old Ausgrid-area homes still run legacy accumulation meters that need replacing to support modern loads and time-of-use tariffs. See our metering service.

Coordinating the Work

A meter upgrade often coincides with a meter box upgrade or switchboard work, since old enclosures rarely fit modern metering safely. We coordinate the electrical, metering and Ausgrid sides so it happens in one visit with minimal downtime, and we work with your retailer where a meter exchange is involved.

What It Costs

Cost depends on whether the enclosure and mains also need work, and on single vs three-phase. We provide a clear quote up front. For a general guide read our meter upgrade cost article.

Level 2 ASP Metering

Metering that connects to the Ausgrid network must be handled by an authorised Level 2 ASP. We are accredited and Ausgrid authorised, and we lodge all required compliance. Call 0466 125 125 or use the contact page.
