Timber enclosures
Old timber boxes are a severe fire hazard and non-compliant for new metering installations.
Enclosure Solutions
When there is no room left for a secondary meter, we replace or expand your meter enclosure to comply with current spatial and fire-rating requirements.
The physical constraints
Adding a separate meter for a granny flat requires dedicated physical space on the metering panel. Many older Sydney homes have small, rusted, or timber-backed meter boxes that simply cannot house the new smart meters or the upgraded switchgear.
Old timber boxes are a severe fire hazard and non-compliant for new metering installations.
Corroded enclosures fail weatherproof standards, allowing moisture to damage sensitive electrical components.
The existing meter, main switch, and off-peak relays occupy the entire available surface area.
Enclosure upgrades
We remove non-compliant boxes and install new, galvanised enclosures. These expanded boards provide the layout required for multi-dwelling properties.
Removing the old enclosure and recessing a modern, weatherproof box into the cavity.
Safe extraction and disposal of hazardous Zelemite panels commonly found in old boxes.
Sourcing and fitting oversized or custom boxes for complex multi-meter arrangements.
