Hello everyone, I'm reaching out about the process of replacing power poles privately. Anyone dealt with this lately who could share some insights?
Hi PoleMaster, I’ve just gone through this process. It’s important to first know whether the defect notice came directly from Western Power. Clarifying this will help you know how to proceed.
Adding to what StormSentry said, weather is a major factor in Perth. Planning your pole replacement when the weather is stable is key to avoiding delays.
One crucial point is choosing the appropriate pole material. Different materials like wood or steel have varied lifespans and costs. Ensure you consult your installer about the best options for your specific needs.
I'd like to stress the importance of finding an experienced installer. Your choice can greatly influence the outcome of the installation. Check their credentials and past projects to ensure they’re capable.
Thanks for all the great advice. I'm taking into account all these aspects as I plan my next steps. http://consumerpoleaeov184-lqgj792.huicopper.com/making-sense-of-the-regulatory-framework-for-private-power-poles-in-perth-2 Any further tips as I get ready to begin?
