Frequently Asked Questions
Who is responsible for a private power pole on my property?
The pole and all associated hardware on your property is your responsibility as the landowner. Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy own and maintain the poles in the public street. We conduct inspections and handle all maintenance and replacement of private poles.
How long do private power poles last in Sydney?
Treated hardwood poles typically last 30–40 years in Sydney's conditions. Steel poles last 50+ years. We inspect pole condition and advise on remaining life and any required maintenance.
Do I need council approval for a private power pole?
Most private pole installations are exempt development under NSW planning rules. Network approval from Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy is required, which we manage on your behalf.
Can you install a private pole for a new building in Sydney?
Yes — new buildings in areas without underground network access often require a private pole for the overhead service connection. We design the pole installation, obtain network approval and install to specification.
My private pole is leaning — is this a safety issue?
Yes — a leaning pole may indicate decay at the base, soil movement or stay wire failure. This is a potential safety and fire risk. Call us for an emergency inspection and remediation before the pole fails completely.
