An old or overcrowded meter box in Double Bay can be unsafe and can block upgrades like solar, EV charging or a bigger supply. Sydney Power Group (SPG) upgrades meter boxes and metering panels across Eastern Suburbs as a Level 2 ASP.
We replace weathered or asbestos-era enclosures, re-position metering, and bring the board up to current AS/NZS 3000 standards — coordinating any metering or supply work with Ausgrid.
Meter Box Upgrade in Double Bay (2028)
Double Bay (2028) sits in Sydney's Eastern Suburbs, an area of coastal apartment blocks, Art Deco flats and period homes packed close to the beaches. That local building stock shapes the kind of Level 2 electrical work property owners here call us for.
Around Double Bay we're regularly called out for undersized consumer mains in older unit blocks, strata switchboards that need upgrading for modern loads and salt-air corrosion of overhead service lines and metering — all Level 2 ASP work rather than something a general electrician can sign off.
Double Bay is supplied by Ausgrid. Ausgrid runs a mix of overhead and underground supply through the Eastern Suburbs, and much of the older residential network is still overhead. Right on the coast, salt spray and summer storm activity take a steady toll on exposed cabling and connections here.
Signs You Need a Meter Box Upgrade
At Double Bay properties, tell-tale signs include a rusted or cracked enclosure, an overcrowded board with no spare capacity, ceramic fuses, water ingress, or a metering position that can't fit a new solar or smart meter.
Where the meter box and switchboard are combined, an upgrade is often paired with a switchboard upgrade or metering panel replacement.
How SPG Upgrades Meter Boxes in Double Bay
We assess your existing enclosure and metering, then supply and install a compliant new meter box, re-terminate the mains, and arrange any metering changes with Ausgrid. As a Level 2 ASP we can also handle smart & solar metering.
The result is a safe, tidy, future-proof board ready for whatever you add next in Double Bay.

Meter Box Upgrade Double Bay — Frequently Asked Questions
Why do Double Bay properties often need this kind of work?
The Eastern Suburbs is coastal apartment blocks, Art Deco flats and period homes packed close to the beaches, so undersized consumer mains in older unit blocks and strata switchboards that need upgrading for modern loads are common around Double Bay. That's why Level 2 upgrades and repairs come up so regularly here.
Why upgrade the meter box at my Double Bay property?
Old, rusted, asbestos-era or overcrowded enclosures can be unsafe and can block solar, EV or supply upgrades. We install a compliant new box and coordinate metering with Ausgrid.
Can you do it alongside solar or an EV charger?
Yes — we often pair a Double Bay meter box upgrade with metering, solar or EV work so it's one coordinated job.

Yes. Our emergency Level 2 team covers Double Bay and Eastern Suburbs 24/7, including weekends and public holidays. For urgent faults call 0466 125 125 any time.
