Our Metering Services in The Entrance
New Meter Installs
We install new meters for renovations, rebuilds, and new connections, wired and commissioned correctly from the start.
Meter Upgrades
Ageing or undersized meters are replaced with modern units rated for today's household electrical load.
Meter Relocations
When a renovation or new switchboard position needs the meter moved, we coordinate the relocation with Ausgrid directly.
Off-Peak Metering
We install off-peak metering for hot water and other appliances, helping households manage running costs.
Solar and Smart Metering
For homes adding solar or wanting usage visibility, we install smart and solar-ready meters to the correct standard.
Meter Box Replacement
Where the meter box itself has corroded or cracked, we replace it with a sealed, weather-rated enclosure suited to coastal conditions.
Why Metering Choice Matters for The Entrance Homes
Choosing the right metering setup affects safety, running costs, and whether your home is ready for solar or higher loads:
- Older meters in long-held cottages may not support modern smart or solar metering
- A poorly sealed meter box accelerates corrosion in this high salt-exposure location
- AS/NZS 3000 compliance is required before Ausgrid will energise a new or upgraded meter
- Off-peak metering can reduce running costs for hot water and pool equipment
- Workmanship and coordination with Ausgrid vary significantly between installers
Many original meter boxes near Marine Parade and Ocean Parade show visible salt corrosion, and if you've noticed a burning smell near your meter box, that needs urgent attention rather than a routine upgrade.
Common Metering Problems We Fix Across The Entrance
We come across a similar set of metering issues across the town's mixed housing stock, from ageing cottages to newer unit blocks:
Old meters in former holiday cottages
Many of the town's mid-century cottages still run original analog meters overdue for replacement with a modern, compliant unit.
Corroded meter box connections
Salt-laden air off the ocean and Tuggerah Lakes corrodes meter terminals faster than inland suburbs, leading to loose or unsafe connections.
Meters needing relocation for renovations
Knock-down-rebuild projects turning cottages into multi-storey units often require the meter moved to a new switchboard location.
No solar-ready metering
Homes adding solar panels frequently need a meter upgrade first, since older units can't record two-way energy flow correctly.
Meter boxes exposed to the elements
Meter boxes mounted on exposed walls facing the ocean or lake cop the worst of the salt spray, and older enclosures often need resealing or full replacement to keep terminals safe and dry.
How it works

We inspect your existing meter, box condition, and connection to determine what install, upgrade, or relocation is needed, checking for corrosion, capacity, and whether the current setup supports solar or off-peak metering.
Upfront Quote
You receive a fixed, written quote covering the meter, labour, and any Ausgrid coordination required.
Professional Installation
Our Level 2 ASPs install or upgrade the meter to AS/NZS 3000, connected correctly to the Ausgrid network.

We test the new metering setup and confirm it's reading and connected correctly before we leave.
