Overview
Apartment buildings and strata complexes share a single supply, and when it's undersized or ageing, every resident feels it. Upgrades need careful planning, network approval and minimal disruption.
We work with strata managers, building managers and owners corporations across Sydney on consumer mains, meter panels and supply upgrades.
What consumer mains are
Consumer mains are the cables that run from the point of supply to the building's main switchboard and meter panels. In older strata buildings they were sized for a fraction of today's load. As residents add air conditioning, induction cooking and EV chargers, many buildings are reaching their limits.
Working with strata
Strata work means planning around residents. We work with strata managers and building managers to schedule outages, issue resident notices, and stage work to keep disruption to a minimum.
EV charging in strata
Before a building can offer EV charging, someone needs to know whether the supply can carry it. We assess the existing supply and consumer mains so the owners corporation can plan an upgrade with real numbers.
