Strata Disconnect & Reconnect in Sydney

Major building works, remediation projects and capital upgrades often require the electrical supply to be safely disconnected and later reconnected. Sydney Power Group (SPG) carries out planned disconnection and reconnection for Sydney strata buildings, keeping the whole scheme's supply safe and the outage short.

As a Level 2 ASP authorised across Ausgrid, Endeavour Energy and Essential Energy, we are authorised to disconnect and reconnect supply at the network connection — work a general electrician cannot legally do. See our related disconnection and service fuse service pages.

When Supply Must Be Isolated

Remediation, facade works, structural repairs and capital upgrades frequently require the building supply to be isolated so trades can work safely, or so the shared infrastructure itself can be replaced. Disconnecting and reconnecting at the network connection is Level 2 ASP work.

We assess exactly what must be isolated — sometimes the whole building, sometimes a section — so the outage is no larger than necessary and essential services are managed throughout.

Coordinating the Works

A planned disconnection has to fit the wider project. We coordinate with builders, remediation crews and the strata manager to schedule the disconnection and reconnection at the right stages, and manage the network application and connection works ourselves.

Where the reconnection is an opportunity to upgrade, we can combine it with a consumer mains upgrade, three-phase upgrade or switchboard upgrade so the building comes back on to improved infrastructure.

Minimising Resident Impact

Any planned outage affects residents, so we keep it as short and predictable as possible, issue clear notices through the strata manager, and prioritise reconnection of lifts, pumps and life-safety systems. Everything is documented for the owners corporation.
