Level 2 ASP + Every approval lodged by us
Level 2 electrician in Paddington.
Paddington is heritage terraces on narrow streets, nearly all fed overhead from the rear lanes. Thorntek works these streets with the right access gear, renewing services and consumer mains and rebuilding fuse era boards, with each Ausgrid application lodged by us.
Ausgrid runs the network in Paddington
Every connection, mains upgrade and service alteration in Paddington is lodged with them and approved before energising. As a Level 2 ASP we lodge the application, do the work and arrange the energising in one program. You never deal with the network.
Meters too: we are accredited to exchange and upgrade meters on behalf of retailers, same day as the works, coordinated with your retailer.

Common questions
Is Paddington on the Ausgrid or Endeavour Energy network?
Paddington is Ausgrid country, fed overhead through the rear lanes of its terrace rows. Thorntek holds Level 2 ASP accreditation, so the application, works and energising stay with one contractor.
Can you clear a defect notice in Paddington?
Yes. Turn to page two of the notice, where the individual defects are listed, and email a copy to connect@thorntek.com.au. We price the Paddington rectification as a fixed quote, carry out the work and lodge the Notice of Service Work (NOSW) with Ausgrid at the end. Email it over to get started.
How much does a Level 2 electrician cost in Paddington?
Terrace work in Paddington is priced around access as much as materials: rear lane services often need access equipment and traffic control on the narrower streets. You still get one fixed price covering all of it before we book the job. Ask through the contact page.
Who is responsible for the power line from the street to my house?
Paddington terraces are usually supplied from a pole in the rear lane, and from that pole to the point of attachment the line is the owner's responsibility, along with the consumer mains beyond it. Repairs there are restricted to a Level 2 ASP. If yours has never been replaced, get it assessed.
The power is out or a line is damaged in Paddington. Who do I call?
Ring 13 13 88 to report a Paddington outage to Ausgrid, and dial 000 first for any fallen wire in a lane or street. Ausgrid restores the network. Repairs to the privately owned run, from the attachment on your terrace through to the meter, are Thorntek's work; contact 1300 58 58 16 once the site is safe.
