What Total Power Loss Actually Means
When your whole property is dead but the street clearly still has power, the fault sits between the pole and your meter, the service mains, point of attachment, or the main connection. This is Level 2 work under AS/NZS 3000, licensed to a Level 2 ASP only, not a general electrician.
Common Causes of No Power to a Whole Ourimbah Property
A fault in the service mains
The overhead or underground cable feeding your property from the street can fail from age, storm damage, or a loose join, cutting power to everything at once.
A failed point of attachment
The bracket where the service line connects to your house can work loose or corrode, breaking the connection even though the street supply is fine.
A fault at the network connection
The link between Ausgrid's network and your property can fail independently of your internal wiring, which general electricians are not licensed to touch.
Storm or tree damage to overhead lines
Ourimbah's bushland acreage blocks see falling branches and wind stress on overhead mains, especially through the region's heavy summer storm season.
A network-side outage limited to your connection
Occasionally Ausgrid's own equipment nearest your property, rather than the shared street supply, fails, cutting only your connection while neighbours remain unaffected.
Is No Power to the Whole Property Dangerous?
Yes, treat it seriously. A dead property with a live street supply often means a fault in the mains connection, and downed or damaged wiring near the house can carry live current.
- Do not touch the meter box, service line, or any bracket that looks loose or damaged
- A sagging or fallen line near the ground should be treated as live until confirmed otherwise
- This is Level 2 work, only a licensed Level 2 ASP is permitted to inspect and repair it
What To Do Right Now
Before we arrive, keep everyone clear of the connection point and follow these safe steps only:
- Confirm the street and neighbours still have power, so you know it is isolated to your property.
- Stay well away from the meter box, service line, and any pole or bracket.
- Do not touch, move, or attempt to reconnect anything near the connection point.
- Keep children and pets away from any wiring near ground level.
- Call a licensed Level 2 ASP (Lic #451348C) to inspect the service mains.

How it works
How We Fix No Power to a Whole Property in Ourimbah
Fault Finding
We check the service mains, point of attachment, and network connection to isolate exactly where the fault sits before touching anything.
Upfront Quote
Once the fault is confirmed, you get a clear, fixed price for the repair or reconnection before any work starts.
The Repair or Reconnection
As Level 2 ASPs we repair or replace the service mains and coordinate reconnection directly with Ausgrid where needed.
Testing & Safety Check
Every repair is tested against AS/NZS 3000 to confirm the connection is safe and power is fully restored.
Why This Is Common in Ourimbah Homes
Ourimbah's semi-rural acreage blocks rely heavily on overhead service mains through bushland, which are more exposed to storm and tree damage than newer underground connections in denser suburbs. Long runs from the pole add extra points of failure.

Common questions
No Power to Whole Property FAQs
Real questions homeowners ask when the whole property goes dark, answered plainly before you decide whether to call.
Is losing all power to my property dangerous?
It can be. A dead property while the street has power often means a live fault in the service mains or connection, so treat it as urgent and call a Level 2 ASP.
What causes a whole property to lose power while neighbours still have it?
A fault in the service mains, the point of attachment, or the main network connection, rather than anything inside your switchboard, is the usual cause.
What should I do if my whole property loses power?
Check the street has power, avoid touching the meter box or any sagging wires, and call a licensed Level 2 ASP to inspect the service mains connection.
Do I need a Level 2 electrician for this, or a normal electrician?
A normal electrician cannot legally touch the wiring between the street and your meter. Only a licensed Level 2 ASP can inspect and repair it.
How much does it cost to fix a total loss of power?
We provide a free quote and fixed upfront pricing once we have diagnosed the fault, plus $0 call-out fees, so you know the cost before we start.
Is a total power loss common in older Ourimbah properties?
Yes. Ageing overhead service mains on Ourimbah's semi-rural and acreage blocks are more exposed to storms and tree fall than newer underground connections.
