Single residential connection
Who is this for?
For a single home with or without an existing connection, wanting to connect via underground.
How long will it take?
3 months to provide you with a technical assessment
4-6 months to provide you with a design and quote, depending on the complexity of your project
3 months to construct, upon payment of quote and confirmation your site is ready
Timeframes indicative only and subject to change based on demand.
How much will it cost?
We'll provide a quote after we complete the scoping and design of your project.
Electricity connections can be varied and complex. We recommend that a professional electrical consultant or contractor determines which connection type best suits your needs.
The type of connection provided will depend on the location - most customers will receive an underground connection, however in some regional areas where the traditional network had been identified for decommissioning, customers may be eligible for a stand-alone power system.
This is for connecting power to a house where there has never been a connection to the Western Power network before. If you simply need to reconnect an existing connection, then please speak to your retailer to set up a new account.
