Our Metering Services in Ourimbah
New Meter Installation
We install new meters for new builds, granny flats and renovations, coordinated with Ausgrid from application through to connection.
Meter Upgrades
Older single-rate meters are upgraded to modern digital meters that support solar export, off-peak tariffs and higher household loads.
Meter Relocations
Where a renovation or switchboard move requires it, we relocate your meter box safely and reconnect it to the network.
Off-Peak Metering
We install off-peak metering for households running heat pump hot water systems or other time-of-use appliances.
Solar & Smart Metering
Homes adding solar get a compatible smart meter installed and configured to correctly record export and import.
Meter Box Replacement
A cracked, corroded or undersized meter box is replaced with a compliant enclosure sized for current and future metering needs.
Why Metering Choice Matters for Ourimbah Homes
Getting metering work done properly affects billing accuracy, solar performance and whether your supply can safely support what you're adding, which is why the decision is worth getting right:
- Older meters often cannot record solar export or off-peak usage correctly
- A poorly located meter box is harder to read and slower to service
- Acreage and rural-residential properties may need longer metering cable runs
- AS/NZS 3000 compliance matters for any property sale or lease
- Workmanship and component quality vary significantly between installers
- A cracked or corroded meter box enclosure can expose wiring to the weather
- Off-peak metering can reduce running costs for hot water and other timed loads
Common Metering Problems We Fix Across Ourimbah
Ageing meters on older village homes
Pre-war and post-war Ourimbah properties near the railway and Pacific Highway strip often still run original metering, which we upgrade to a compliant, modern unit.
Meters that can't handle solar export
Households adding solar find an old single-rate meter cannot record export correctly, so we install a compatible smart meter.
Burning smell or heat at the meter box
A meter box burning smell points to overheating at the metering connection, which we treat as an urgent Level 2 job.
Meter box in an inconvenient location
Renovations sometimes call for the meter to move, and we handle the relocation and network reconnection as part of the job.
Supply not coping with added load
Adding an EV charger, pool pump or workshop can call for a consumer mains upgrade alongside a metering upgrade.

How does pricing work for a new or upgraded meter?
We provide a fixed, upfront quote once we know the meter type and scope of work, with $0 call-out fees and no surprise costs added later.
How long does a meter installation or upgrade take?
Most meter installs and upgrades are completed in a single visit, though timing can depend on Ausgrid's own connection scheduling.
Is metering work covered by a warranty?
Yes, every metering job we complete is backed by our lifetime labour warranty on workmanship.
What standards do you install meters to?
All metering work is completed to AS/NZS 3000 and connected in line with Ausgrid network requirements as a Level 2 ASP.
Do I need approval to relocate my meter box?
Meter relocations are coordinated with Ausgrid as part of the job, and we handle that liaison directly as your Level 2 ASP.
Why do older Ourimbah homes often need a meter upgrade?
Many pre-war and post-war Ourimbah properties still run original metering that predates solar and modern appliance loads, so an upgrade is often needed.
