Are your service lines a safety risk?
If you’re a property owner you are responsible for the repair and maintenance of powerlines, poles and underground cables within the boundary of your property. Check them regularly for signs of wear and tear. If you have concerns, call Top Energy or a registered electrician to assess the need for repairs before the situation becomes dangerous.
The power cable that runs from the street to your house is called a service line. It can be overhead on poles, or underground.
What to look for
Leaning poles or low hanging lines, fraying, trees nearby, crooked cross arms or signs of damage. You are responsible for the maintenance and safety of your service line.
When the power goes out
If you have a power outage, first check the outage maps using a mobile device to see what’s going on in your area.
If your outage is not showing, report it by calling Top Energy on 0800 867 363.
