Level 2 electrical work is anything that connects to, or affects, the network side of your meter — service lines from the pole or pit, the point of attachment on the house, the consumer mains between meter and switchboard, and the metering itself. It legally must be performed by an Accredited Service Provider (Level 2 ASP) authorised by Ausgrid. Empire Electrical Contractors is an ASP-accredited business, so we can quote, disconnect, work live where required, install new metering and reconnect — all without waiting on a separate contractor.
The most common Sydney Level 2 jobs are a mains upgrade (typically from 63A to 100A to support ducted air-con, EV charging or a granny flat), a service line replacement after a storm rip-off, a meter box relocation for a renovation or driveway change, and a new service connection for a knock-down-rebuild or secondary dwelling. Every job includes the Ausgrid notification, the Contestable/Non-Contestable paperwork, and coordination of any street pit or pole access needed.
Because Level 2 works usually involve a planned outage, we book the outage window to suit you (early morning is standard), attend as an entire crew, and complete disconnection, replacement and reconnection in one visit wherever the scope allows.
