Freshwater's charm comes from its early beach cottages and village streets, but charm doesn't excuse eighty-year-old electrical supplies. High Demand Electrical is accredited with Ausgrid as a Level 2 ASP, giving Freshwater owners a single licensed contact for renovation disconnections, supply upgrades, solar metering and the defect notices that older connections attract.
Renovating Freshy's originals without power dramas
Half the streets in Freshwater seem to have a renovation underway, and almost every serious one collides with the electrical supply: a service cable across the demolition zone, a switchboard in a wall that's coming out, mains too small for the finished floor plan. Those supply-side tasks require a Level 2 Accredited Service Provider authorised by Ausgrid.
We slot into your build program, handle disconnection, temporary supply, upgrades and reconnection, and certify each stage with a CCEW so your certifier has nothing to chase.
Temporary disconnects while you build
Roof lifts and first-floor additions around Freshwater usually mean the existing service has to come off before scaffolding goes up. We schedule the disconnect to suit your builder, provide temporary site power where needed, and reconnect to a new point of attachment once the structure allows it. The build never stalls waiting for power to move.
Old cottage wiring, honestly assessed
Behind the weatherboards, some Freshwater cottages still hide cloth-covered conductors and long-obsolete fittings. Degraded insulation is a genuine fire hazard, not a sales pitch. We inspect, tell you what's actually there, and take care of the mains and service work that a rewire brings with it. Facts first, then a written price, then the work.

Bigger supply for bigger plans
An extended Freshwater home with ducted air, induction cooking and a heat pump can double its electrical demand. We upgrade supplies from the old 63 amp standard to 100 amps and beyond, or to three-phase, so the finished renovation never runs at the edge of its capacity. Even the coldest winter morning will not stretch it.
Solar exports metered correctly
Panels are appearing all over Freshwater's rooftops, and every install ends at the meter panel. We fit and connect smart meters, set up export metering for solar, and confirm the switchboard can take the additional circuits before the inverter goes live. Your feed-in credits then start from day one, not after a re-inspection.
Secure Your Grid Connection
Before your builder books demolition, call High Demand Electrical about the supply side. Quick site visit, clear written quote, and the Ausgrid coordination handled for you. from application through to reconnection.
Don't wait for an outage to force your hand.
