Our Metering Services in Point Frederick
New Meter Installation
We supply and install new meters for new builds, granny flats and foreshore apartment fit-outs, connected and commissioned to Ausgrid requirements from day one.
Meter Upgrades
Ageing single-phase meters are upgraded to handle modern household load, including solar export and higher-draw appliances like a large oven or pool pump.
Meter Relocations
Renovations or a new switchboard position often need the meter moved, and we handle the relocation and Ausgrid notification for you.
Off-Peak & Smart Metering
We install off-peak, smart and solar-ready metering so your household can access time-of-use tariffs and monitor usage accurately.
Meter Box Repairs
Corroded, damaged or non-compliant meter boxes are repaired or replaced so the enclosure meets current standards.
Multi-Meter Installations
Foreshore apartment buildings and dual-occupancy properties get multiple meters installed and clearly labelled, so each unit's usage is billed correctly.
Why Metering Choice Matters for Point Frederick Homes
Choosing the right team for a meter install, upgrade or relocation affects safety, compliance and how well your supply copes with modern load:
- Old single-phase meters may not support solar export or added load from an EV charger or pool pump
- Corroded meter boxes on estuary-front properties near Brisbane Water can overheat undetected for months
- A defect notice from Ausgrid must be rectified by a Level 2 ASP before power can be reconnected safely
- Incorrect metering on a multi-unit property can lead to billing disputes between occupants
- AS/NZS 3000 compliance matters for insurance and any future sale of the property
- Workmanship and materials vary significantly between installers on Level 2 work
Common Metering Problems We Fix Across Point Frederick
Ageing meters in older cottages
Some of the pre-war and mid-century homes near Pioneer Park still run original meters well past their practical service life, which we replace and upgrade to current standards.
Corroded meter boxes near the water
Properties along the Brisbane Water foreshore suffer faster corrosion on meter box enclosures and terminals, which we replace with sealed, weather-rated units built for the local climate.
Burning smell or buzzing at the meter
A burning smell from the meter box points to an overheating connection, which we assess and rectify urgently as a Level 2 ASP.
Meter not supporting solar or EV load
Where a household is adding solar or an EV charger, we upgrade metering so it can accurately record and support the new load.
Meter box in the wrong spot after a renovation
Foreshore apartment fit-outs and cottage renovations near Pioneer Park often need the meter relocated to suit a new switchboard position or entryway layout, which we coordinate with Ausgrid.

What standards do you install meters to?

Do I need council or network approval for a meter relocation?
Meter relocations require notification to Ausgrid, which we coordinate on your behalf as part of the job so the connection stays compliant.
Why is my meter box making a burning smell or buzzing near Brisbane Water?
Salt-laden air off Brisbane Water can accelerate corrosion at meter connections, causing overheating, so this should be assessed by a Level 2 ASP urgently.
