When You Need an Emergency Level 2 Electrician
Electrical emergencies involving your connection to the supply network require urgent attention from a Level 2 ASP (Accredited Service Provider).
General electricians are not licensed to work on service lines, meters, overhead or underground connections, or private power poles.
If you experience a sudden power loss, storm damage, or urgent safety defect, an emergency Level 2 electrician is the only safe, legal choice.
Common Electrical Emergencies Requiring Level 2 Work
- Loss of supply due to storm damage or equipment failure
- Damaged service lines (overhead or underground)
- Fallen private power poles or point-of-attachment faults
- Electrical defect notices requiring urgent compliance
- Burnt or unsafe switchboards affecting the supply
Why Speed & Compliance Matter
In an emergency, quick action can mean the difference between a fast restoration and days without power.
Level 2 electricians are authorised to:
- Disconnect and reconnect your property to the network
- Replace damaged service equipment
- Complete compliant repairs so energy providers approve reconnection
