A private pole is a power pole that is privately owned and must also be privately maintained.
The electricity supply generally comes from the network pole (large power pole on the street) to the front of your house
The point at which the cables attach to your house is called a point of attachment (POA)
There are stringent rules and regulations about the location of this point and that is why private power poles must sometimes be used
Common reasons for the installation of a private pole could be to avoid the cable that feeds your house crossing an adjoining property or to maintain safe height & positioning over roads, pathways and your property.
You can also install a private pole for aesthetic reasons.
The cables running to the front of your home are sometimes unsightly or in the way of trees and foliage
The cables can attach to a private pole and from there the cables can run to your switchboard either overhead or underground
Once a private power pole is installed, it must be inspected regularly and maintained to prevent damage to property or persons in the event they fail and fall over.
Timber private power poles are commonly 30-40+ years old
Timber poles are prone to rot at the base and below ground level in coastal areas or where the ground has a lot of moisture
They are also prone to termite attack
Steel power poles have a lifespan of around 15 years but can also be prone to rust and decay at the base or just below ground level especially in coastal or wet areas
The ground around them should be excavated and the poles inspected on a regular basis to make sure they are in good condition
If your timber or steel power pole is leaning or is not stable in the ground we recommend you have it inspected as soon as possible
We also recommend regular pole checks to avoid a costly emergency fee should they be damaged during storm or high winds

We were first on the scene today when this car caught fire on Mona Vale road in Terrey Hills, we managed to put it out with our car fire extinguisher but it started up again shortly after, with the fire extinguisher empty all we could do was watch along side the driver who was un injured.

What our clients are saying
Everest Electrical
Unit 4/5 Ponderosa Parade, Warriewood
-
I feel fortunate to have randomly chosen Everest Electrical in Warriewood to give me a quote on repairs to my powerlines, brought down by a tree during recent high … read more winds. This required a Level 2 contractor and as we had been without power for just over two days I wanted the work done a.s.a.p.
Andrew was in the area and was able to attend and quickly give me a very acceptable quote to do the work the same day. I have to say that he and his whole team went out of their way to make this all happen within a few hours. The job required a new private pole to be installed, replacement of old fixtures on the house and new power cables connected to mains network. Everything was left clean and tidy.
Without a doubt, this is the sort of professionalism you want; quick response and a fair quote, quality work, and excellent and courteous communication from everyone, including Leigh in the office. I happily recommend EVEREST ELECTRICAL.

Excellent Service and a Seamless Experience
I recently needed to replace a rusty power pole and reached out to Everest Electrical. From start to finish, the experience … read more was smooth, professional, and surprisingly pleasant. Andrew, the Level 2 electrician, was knowledgeable, efficient, and a pleasure to deal with. The entire process was also exceptionally well-coordinated by Leigh, who ensured everything ran without a hitch.
What impressed me most was that the entire job was completed without ever meeting the team in person—our communication by phone and email was more than sufficient. It’s rare to find such a high level of service delivered so seamlessly. Job well done! -
I haven't had an experience that smooth in a long time.
Really fast turnaround, they did exactly what they said they would do, exactly when they said they would. … read more A few issues getting our old pole out but all handled professionally and swiftly with no drama.
