Solar & Smart Metering
Adding solar or moving to smart metering is completed by our accredited team, coordinated with your retailer and the network.

Three-Phase Metering
Properties upgrading to three-phase supply for a workshop or heavier load get metering fitted and configured to match.
Why Metering Choice Matters for Charmhaven Homes
Getting metering work done properly affects your supply reliability, compliance and how well your setup handles future changes like solar, so it pays to choose a Level 2 ASP who deals directly with the network rather than leaving you to chase paperwork:
- Older meter boxes near Budgewoi Lake corrode faster in the salt-laden air
- Non-compliant metering can hold up a defect notice clearance
- An undersized meter can't support added load from an EV charger or pool
- AS/NZS 3000 compliance is required for any new or upgraded connection
- Workmanship and network coordination vary significantly between installers
- A poorly coordinated relocation can leave your property without power for longer than necessary
Common Metering Problems We Fix Across Charmhaven
Corroded meter boxes near the lake
Homes fronting Budgewoi Lake sit in a brackish, humid environment that corrodes older meter boxes and terminals faster than inland suburbs.
Old or failing meters
Original meters on 1960s to 1980s Charmhaven homes are often well past their working life, and we replace them with a compliant, current unit.
Burning smell or overheating at the meter
A meter box burning smell points to an overheating connection, and our Level 2 ASPs treat this as a priority job.
Supply not sized for modern load
Adding an EV charger, pool pump or larger oven can outgrow the original meter and supply, which we assess as part of any upgrade.
No power despite a live street connection
When metering or its connection faults, it can cause no power to the whole property even though the street still has supply.
Meter box due for compliance upgrade
Ahead of a sale, lease, or renovation, an outdated or non-compliant meter box is often flagged, and we bring it up to current standards before it becomes a bigger issue.
