Reasons Why You May Need a Commercial Electricity Disconnection
- Building a new property over existing service route: When constructing a new building, the existing service route may need to be altered to accommodate the new structure.
- Dividing a commercial unit: If you're dividing a commercial space into multiple units, each may require its own meter and supply adjustment.
- Building an extension over existing service route: Expanding your commercial property over an existing service route may necessitate moving the meter and supply lines to ensure safe and compliant installation.
- Installing a swimming pool over existing service route: The addition of a swimming pool may require the existing service route to be relocated to avoid interference or potential hazards.
- Moving the existing supply to a safer location: Relocating the supply to a more appropriate area, such as outside a kitchen, toilet, bathroom, basement, or service area, to enhance safety and compliance.
- Wanting the meter and supply outside: Moving the meter and supply to an external meter box or kiosk for easier access and improved safety.
