Building a new home, granny flat or duplex in Paddington? Connecting it to the electricity network is Level 2 work — from the network application through to the physical connection and metering. Sydney Power Group (SPG) completes new power connections across Inner City / CBD as an accredited ASP on the Ausgrid network.
We handle the paperwork, the consumer mains, the point of attachment and the energisation, so your certifier and your move-in date aren't waiting on the power company.
New Power Connection in Paddington (2021)
Paddington (2021) sits in Sydney's Inner City / CBD, an area of high-density terraces, heritage buildings and apartment towers with tight street access. That local building stock shapes the kind of Level 2 electrical work property owners here call us for.
Around Paddington we're regularly called out for underground supply and pit-and-pipe connections in built-up streets, strata and mixed-use switchboards serving several tenancies and metering upgrades for apartments and small commercial spaces — all Level 2 ASP work rather than something a general electrician can sign off.
Paddington is supplied by Ausgrid. Ausgrid feeds the inner city with a dense mix of underground and overhead supply, and access for network work is often constrained. High density and older building services mean metering and connection work here needs careful coordination.

Connecting New Builds in Paddington
A new connection in Paddington covers the Ausgrid application, the service line from the street (overhead or underground), the consumer mains into the switchboard, and the metering. We complete all of it as one scope — see our new property connections service for the detail.
Duplexes and dual occupancies need two separate supplies and meters — covered under duplex metering. Granny flats have their own path too: granny flat metering.

From Builders Power to Permanent Supply
Most Paddington builds run on a temporary builders supply during construction, then switch to the permanent connection at completion. SPG handles both stages, so the same team that powered your site connects the finished home — and the changeover is scheduled around your handover, not the other way around.
Upgrading capacity at the same time? A three phase upgrade at connection stage is far cheaper than retrofitting it later.

New Power Connection Paddington — Frequently Asked Questions
Why do Paddington properties often need this kind of work?
The Inner City / CBD is high-density terraces, heritage buildings and apartment towers with tight street access, so metering upgrades for apartments and small commercial spaces and underground supply and pit-and-pipe connections in built-up streets are common around Paddington. That's why Level 2 upgrades and repairs come up so regularly here.
Can a regular electrician do this in Paddington?
No — work on the service mains, point of attachment, metering and the connection to the Ausgrid network in Paddington is Level 2 ASP work. A general electrician isn't licensed for it and the distributor won't accept the job.
