Choosing Overhead or Underground Power
If you’re looking for a clear-cut answer to the question of whether overhead power lines or underground power are better,.
Deciding between these options can be challenging. Let’s now explore both options to understand the reasons behind choosing between overhead powerline service cables and underground electrical systems.
Learning Overhead Powerline Cables:
An overhead service cable is made up of conductors that facilitate the flow of electricity. These cables, suspended from poles, can transport electrical energy over long distances. These cables are commonly seen running from the street network pole to a home or a private power pole, providing electricity.
Gaining Insight into the Consumer Mains Underground:
In the same way, an underground consumer mainly utilizes power from the street’s network. However, what sets it apart is that the cables are buried underground and connected to the meter box on your property. Underground electrical systems are essential in specific locations like new subdivisions, suburbs, and parts of Sydney’s CBD. These systems have the capability to provide either a single- or three-phase power supply.

Overhead vs. Underground Power
So, what’s the reason behind the overwhelming preference for overhead service cables in 93% of Australian households? One significant reason for the overwhelming preference for overhead service cables in 93% of Australian households is cost. Overhead service cables last longer than underground systems, offering great value for your investment. The visibility of overhead cables allows for easier and quicker identification and resolution of any issues.
On the other hand, overhead cables are susceptible to issues because they are exposed to external elements. Power outages may happen due to natural elements such as severe weather, falling trees, and lightning affecting overhead cables. Overhead cables may sometimes fall due to wildlife and accidents, such as car collisions.

Happy Customers
Danielle Burton
Had a power outage at my wedding on a Saturday night, called around a few other electricians and no other '24/7' electricians were able to help us out. Parker Level had the electrician race down in under 30mins. Absolute Legends! Highly recommend
Kirk Mclean
Offered an excellent, reliable service and were very efficient with nothing being too much hassle for them. The guys were extremely friendly too and were very tidy cleaning up after themselves. Will definitely be recommending to my friends as we had a fantastic experience.
Priscilla Jenkins
Parker did a fantastic job with upgrading our supply from single to 3-phase, along with a new switchboard that gives us an extra 11 circuits. Also installed an additional double powerpoint and outside 15 amp powerpoint. Would recommend 100%, and if we need any work done in the future will definitely give them a call.

Parker was super helpful in assisting with an emergency call out and also answered when no one else could. Thanks for helping me resolve the issue and being so punctual with the service. Very pleased thanks again !
Jo Momoy
We lost power in several rooms earlier this week. Parker was able to very quickly identify the issue, buy a replacement fuse, rewire some old faulty wire in our electricity box and restore electricity everywhere in our home. He is competent, polite and helpful. I could not recommend him highly enough.
