Private Power FAQ

Hello everyone, I'm reaching out about the process of replacing power poles privately. Anyone with recent experience who could share some insights?

Hi PoleMaster, I’ve recently handled a similar situation. It’s vital to first understand whether your notice is from Western Power or if it's a private advisory. Clarifying this will help you figure out the next steps.

Adding to what StormSentry said, weather is a major factor in Perth. Scheduling your installations when the weather is stable is key to avoiding delays.

An important aspect is choosing the right type of pole. Wood and steel poles have distinct advantages and drawbacks. Ensure you consult your contractor the most suitable choice for your specific needs.

I'd like to stress the importance of finding an experienced installer. Your choice can greatly influence the outcome of the installation. Check their credentials and previous work to verify they’re capable.

Everyone's input has been invaluable. I'll be considering all these points as I move forward. Any further tips as I get ready to begin?
