WHAT IS THE POINT OF ATTACHMENT?
The point of attachment is located where the powerlines come in from the street and attach to your house or business. This can be either via overhead cables or underground cables. Most often if you need to get your point of attachment (POA) moved or relocated it will be due to an electrical safety hazard and can even be because of an electrical defect notice.
There are a number of different brackets that your Level 2 electrician can supply and install for your point of attachment. The two most popular POA brackets are the fascia bracket and the rafter bracket. These will be installed in slightly different spots on your roof. Generally, your level 2 electrician will consult with you and can recommend what will be safest and have the best results for you – whilst still being aesthetically pleasing. Street value is very important even when it comes to electrical installations!

In some commercial situations, our clients may need continuous power so we’re happy to offer additional services through on-site power with our generators up to 20kW.

NEED TO MOVE YOUR POINT OF ATTACHMENT?
Situations where you may need to move or relocate your point of attachment can include:
When you are knocking down your old house to build a new dwelling you will need to get a Level 2 Electrician to come and disconnect your power. They will submit a Notification of Service Work (NOSWA) with the relevant electricity authority. They can then set you up with temporary site power for your builder (also known as temporary builders supply) on a temporary site board.
Once your new house is built they will then provide a new connection and you then request a new electricity meter from your electricity provider of choice and connect your power-up. The POA could be run from either underground or overhead cables depending on your budget, your location, and how you want it to be set up.
If you’re installing a new roof on your home or having repairs done to your roof, quite often you will need a Level 2 ASP to come and either make the high voltage lines safe for works with tiger tails or to move the point of attachment whilst install or repairs are done. This can also be true if you require work on the fascia of your house.
When access to your backyard is needed to install your new pool, you will often need to get your service lines moved. This is to give access to the excavator which will be digging out the backyard. As you can imagine it is very dangerous to be operating big machinery where there are power lines in the way! So your electrician will re-locate the point of attachment whether it is temporarily disconnected to allow works to be done, or permanently relocated.
WHAT DOES IT COST TO REPAIR OR REPLACE THE POINT OF ATTACHMENT?
There are a number of considerations to keep in mind when you’re trying to work out the costs of repairing your point of attachment to your home or business premises. Obviously, the components that need to be used will add to the price of repairing the point of attachment. The length of the overhead cables if they need to be replaced, will definitely add to the costings of the job, along with the cost of the bracket as it depends on what type is needed.
If you have a double-story house – you may need more cable than a normal install of about 10m, so this will increase the price for your service. There is also a good possibility that your service connectors will need to be replaced if your home was built before 1983 as they will not be up to today’s electrical standard.
Generally when you need to have your point of attachment re-attached, when it is moved, the cables can be too short to re-attach. So we have priced an example of repairing the point of attachment cost.
Below we have given an estimate of basic pricing for repairing or re-attaching your point of attachment. The easiest way to get an exact price is to call us or request a quote online.

Jody Spiteri
We recently used Luke from Arrow Power for all our electrical work in our office. Extremely competitive prices and well thought out detailed quotation that advised us of all our expected costs. Very reliable and by far the best tradesman I have come across. Thanks you so much I would definitely refer you to my family and friends and will call again next time we need more electrical work done at home or work.

After getting a quick quote i received a phone call from Victoria in a quick time to organise a visit from Luke and Nick who were very upfront on what was required and my possible options. This level of professionalism is what I value in dealing with a company to ensure a safe and long term solution.
Kathy Lingard
I rang Arrow Power for advice re moving my Electricity Pole and power line, as I had large trees causing an issue. They quickly emailed me back with a free quote, much cheaper than I expected. The next easy step was a technician coming to my place for onsite expert advice and to organize the work. Which was carried out promptly. Was very happy with the whole experience.
