Private poles and rural supply
Replacing rotten private poles, re-running overhead and underground service lines, and upgrading mains on acreage, all done by us as a Level 2 provider.
Hunter Valley electricians and solar · Lic. 354927C · Level 2 ASP AUB 6511
Electrical and solar across the Hunter, from Maitland and the Thornton growth corridor to Cessnock, Pokolbin and Singleton. Rural blocks, new estates and vineyard venues, owner-quoted and Level 2 accredited.

Working across the Hunter
The Hunter is three kinds of work. The Maitland growth corridor at Thornton, Chisholm, Gillieston Heights and Aberglasslyn is new builds and young homes, where we plan the electrical on the drawings and fit solar and EV charging from day one. Rural blocks around Lochinvar, Paterson and Branxton have long private overhead lines and private poles, which is Level 2 work most electricians cannot do without calling someone else. And the vineyard venues and cellar doors around Pokolbin and Lovedale need commercial power that does not fail on a wedding Saturday.
One Hunter customer had us do solar, an induction cooktop, a mains upgrade and security cameras in the one visit, and wrote that they plan to come back for a battery and more panels on the garage. That is the kind of job the Hunter gives us: a bit of everything, done once.
What we do here
Replacing rotten private poles, re-running overhead and underground service lines, and upgrading mains on acreage, all done by us as a Level 2 provider.
Thornton, Chisholm and Gillieston Heights builds planned on the drawings, with the board, the conduit and the EV charger allowed for.
Big rural roofs and sheds make for generous systems. Sized to the house, the pump and the shed, with a battery for the evenings and the outages.
Cellar doors, restaurants and function venues with three-phase, kitchen circuits, feature lighting and emergency lights kept tested.
Older Maitland and Cessnock homes with ceramic fuses and no safety switches, upgraded with the mains and meter on the same day.
Home chargers for the commute to Newcastle, on three-phase where the estates have it, set up to charge off the solar.
Local knowledge
Ausgrid is the network distributor across the lower and mid Hunter, and as a Level 2 Accredited Service Provider we handle connections, metering and service work with them directly. On rural property that matters more than anywhere: a long private line, a tired private pole or an underground run to a new shed is work we do ourselves, on one quote, rather than booking a second contractor.
Acreage also means pumps, sheds, long cable runs and voltage drop, and it means outages last longer when a storm comes through. A battery set up for backup earns its keep out here, and we design solar for the shed roof as readily as the house.
Maitland City Council, Cessnock City Council and Singleton Council handle approvals where they apply to larger solar and commercial work. For most residential jobs none are needed, and we tell you up front when one is.



From a Google review in Hunter Valley
Dak and his team did a great job with our solar installation, plus installation of induction cooktop, mains upgrade and security camera installation at the same time. Very positive experience from start to finish. Highly recommend and plan to work with them again in the future if/when we expand to a solar battery and additional panels on the garage.

Good to know
Maitland and its suburbs, the Thornton and Chisholm corridor, Kurri Kurri and Cessnock, Pokolbin and Lovedale, Branxton and Greta, Paterson and out to Singleton. Further up the valley, ring and ask.
Yes. Private poles and the overhead or underground service lines on them are Level 2 work, which we are accredited for. We inspect it, quote it, and deal with Ausgrid for the disconnection and reconnection.
Often, because the shed roof is frequently bigger and better oriented than the house. We run the connection back to the board and size the system to the house, the pump and the shed together.
Yes. Cellar doors, restaurants and function venues around Pokolbin and Lovedale, with work scheduled around events and emergency lighting kept on a testing schedule.
Yes, if it is set up for backup. We wire the essentials, usually the fridge, lights, internet and the pump, onto the backup circuit so they keep running when the line goes down.
Not as a separate line. We book Hunter jobs together so the travel is ours to manage. The quote is the quote.
