A Level 1 ASP (Accredited Service Provider) is licensed to work on the network side of your property's electricity supply, including overhead and underground service lines, the point of attachment, and direct connections to the Ausgrid network. DM Electrical holds current Level 1 ASP authority and delivers connection, disconnection, and service-line work across Sydney's Northern Beaches, North Shore, Inner West, Eastern Suburbs, and CBD.
Level 1 work is the layer most electrical contractors cannot legally touch. It covers everything between the street pole and your switchboard, plus the service mains that bring power onto your property. If you are connecting a new build to the grid, upgrading a worn overhead service, or installing a new pillar for a development site, you need a Level 1 ASP authorised by Ausgrid (or Endeavour Energy on the city fringes). Daniel McCormick is on the tools for every job, so the person quoting you is the same person doing the work. That matters when the job involves the network, where mistakes get expensive and decisions need to be made on site.
A Level 1 Accredited Service Provider is a contractor authorised by the NSW network operator (Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy) to install, maintain, and repair the overhead and underground service lines that connect a property to the electricity network. A general A-grade electrical contractor is not legally permitted to do this work.
Yes, if the property does not already have a connection to the network. The Level 1 ASP installs the service cable from the network pole or pit to your meter box, lodges the connection notification with Ausgrid, and provides the compliance certificate that allows your meter to be installed and the supply energised.
From the day we lodge the notification, Ausgrid energisation typically takes 5 to 15 business days depending on whether the connection is overhead or underground and whether new network assets are required. The actual on-site work is usually a single day.
Yes. If your existing overhead is undersized for a new load (such as a 3-phase upgrade, ducted aircon, or EV charger), or if the cable has degraded, we replace it with compliant cable and brackets and reattach it to the building at the correct height above driveways, roofs, and pools.
Yes. We lodge the Connection, Disconnection, or Service Alteration notification with Ausgrid, coordinate with their crew where required, and provide you with the Electrical Safety Certificate of Compliance once the work is signed off.
Level 2 covers consumer mains, switchboard work, meter installations, and disconnection or reconnection from the point of attachment inwards. Level 1 covers the service line itself between the network and your point of attachment. Most jobs involving a network change need both authorities, which is why we hold both.
