Level 2 Electrical Services Sydney
Level 2 Accredited Electricians. Trading Since 1999.
Dave Fenech Electrical Services is a Level 2 Accredited Service Provider based in St Marys, and we’ve been doing Level 2 electrical work across Sydney since 1999. We connect homes, businesses and building sites to the Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy networks, and we look after the switchboards, meters and mains behind that connection.
That covers overhead and underground services, private power poles, consumer mains, meter boxes, switchboard upgrades and three phase power, plus site power and subdivision work for builders. Every service we offer is listed below with a short summary and a link to its own page.

Switchboards and Power Supply Upgrades
More capacity, safer boards and a supply that suits the load
Plenty of older Sydney homes still run on a fuse board, undersized mains and single phase power. Add ducted air, a pool heat pump, a bigger solar system or an EV charger and something usually has to change. We upgrade the board, the mains and the supply as one job, and because we’re Level 2 we can disconnect and reconnect the power ourselves.
Switchboard Upgrades
We replace old fuse boxes and asbestos meter panels with a new switchboard fitted with circuit breakers and RCD safety switches, wired and tested to AS/NZS 3000. If the meter or mains need work too, we do it on the same job.
Single Phase to Three Phase Upgrades
Three phase power suits ducted air conditioning, pool heat pumps, workshops, larger solar systems and fast EV chargers. We lodge the network application and change the mains, meter and switchboard. Once the network approves it, the on-site work is done in one day.
Consumer Mains Upgrade and Replacement
Consumer mains carry every amp from the street to your meter and main switch. We replace brittle, damaged and undersized mains, overhead or underground, then reconnect you to the network.
Circuit Breakers and Safety Switches
Circuit breakers protect the wiring and safety switches protect people. We add and replace both, usually alongside a switchboard upgrade, so a faulty appliance or cable trips the circuit before it starts a fire or gives someone a shock.
Overhead and Underground Electrical Services
The connection between the street and your property
Everything between the network and your meter box is Level 2 work. That includes the service line, the bracket it’s fixed to, private poles and underground cable. We’re accredited on the Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy networks, so we can isolate the supply, do the work and reconnect you without waiting for the network to send a crew.
Overhead Electrical Service
We replace old and low-hanging service lines, fix clearance problems, repair storm damage and upgrade overhead services for bigger loads, from the street pole to your meter box.
Underground Power and Cable Installation
Our own excavator digs the trench, then we lay the conduit, pull the cable and connect it. We do street-to-house supplies, overhead to underground conversions and cable runs to sheds, pools and granny flats.
Private Power Poles
Leaning, rotting or rusted poles get replaced with galvanised steel or treated timber. The pole, the service line, the point of attachment and the network paperwork are all handled as one job.
Point of Attachment Brackets
This is the bracket on your house or pole that holds the service line. We replace corroded, damaged and non-compliant brackets, risers and fascia mounts, including ones flagged on a defect notice.
Electrical Disconnect and Reconnect
Renovations, roofing, painting, tree work and demolitions often need the supply cut at the street. We disconnect the service, make the site safe for your trades and reconnect it when they’ve finished.
Electrical Defect Notice Repairs
Got a defect notice from Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy? We read it, fix the pole, bracket, service line or mains it lists, reconnect the power and lodge the paperwork with your network.
Electricity Metering Services
Meter boxes, meter panels and the supply behind them
Your retailer’s metering provider supplies and fits the meter. Before it can go in, the meter box has to be safe, have room for the meter and let the supply be isolated. That’s the Level 2 side, and it’s the part we do. We also set up metering for new connections, solar systems, granny flats and commercial sites.
Electricity Meter Installation
New meter boxes for new homes and knockdown rebuilds, meter box relocations for extensions, asbestos board replacements and off-peak hot water metering. We get the site ready and connect the supply so the meter can be fitted.
Smart Meter Installation
Every new or replacement meter in NSW is now a smart meter. When the installer finds no room on the board, asbestos, or a supply they can’t isolate, we fix the site so the smart meter can go in.
Solar Metering
Adding solar or upgrading your system usually means a new bi-directional meter. If the meter box is full, old or unsafe, we rebuild it so your retailer can fit the meter and your system can export.
Granny Flat Metering
Separate meters or sub meters for a granny flat, so each household pays for its own power. We run the supply from your main switchboard and lodge the paperwork with the network and your retailer.
CT Metering Installation
Sites drawing more than 100 amps per phase need current transformer metering. We install CT cabinets and meter panels for commercial, industrial and strata buildings and for large homes on three phase.
Electrical Services for Builders and Developers
Site power, new connections and subdivisions
Builders and developers use us at every stage of a project, from temporary power on day one to the permanent supply and separate meters for each lot. We run our own 3.5 tonne excavator and 9.5 tonne truck, so the trenching and the electrical work stay with one team.
Temporary Site Power
A builder’s pole or pillar, a meter and a site switchboard with safety switches, so trades can work from the first day. We connect it to the network and change the site over to permanent power when the build is done.
Subdivision Electrical Services
Duplex, dual occupancy, Torrens title, strata and small lot subdivisions. We look after the underground mains, pits and pillars, meters and the network paperwork your council needs before it releases the plan.
Knockdown Rebuilds and New Connections
We disconnect the old supply before demolition, then install the new consumer mains, meter box and network connection for the finished home, so the builder deals with one electrical contractor from start to finish.
Why Use a Level 2 Electrician for Supply Work
A general electrician can wire a house, but connecting it to the street network needs a Level 2 Accredited Service Provider. Booking a Level 2 team for the whole job means the disconnection, the work and the reconnection are handled by the same people, with no gap while you wait on a second contractor or the network. You can read more about the difference between a Level 2 and an ordinary electrician.
Every job comes with the compliance paperwork for your network, and we’re licensed and insured for work on both the Ausgrid and Endeavour Energy networks (NSW Contractor Licence No. 226233C, ASP Level 2 Accreditation No. 3142).
