No Power to Whole Property in Long Jetty
If your whole Long Jetty property has lost power but the street still has it, this is a Level 2 fault, not a switchboard problem. Electrician Long Jetty is Level 2 ASP accredited and responds same-day, backed by 300+ five-star reviews.
What No Power to the Whole Property Actually Means
When your whole home is dead but the street clearly has power, the fault sits between the pole and your meter, not inside your switchboard. This is the wiring only a Level 2 ASP is licensed to touch under AS/NZS 3000, and Lic #451348C means it's handled correctly.
Common Causes of Total Power Loss to Your Long Jetty Property
A fault in the service mains
The overhead or underground cable running from the street to your property has failed, often after storms rolling in off Tuggerah Lake.
A failed point of attachment
The bracket or connection where the service line meets your house has come loose or broken, cutting the supply completely.
A lost network connection
The link between the Ausgrid network and your meter has failed, which is Level 2 work, not a job for a general switchboard fix.
Ageing consumer mains
Long Jetty's original mid-century cottages often still run consumer mains near the end of their service life, more prone to sudden failure.
A network-side outage on your connection only
Occasionally the fault sits on the network's side of the connection rather than your own mains, which still needs a Level 2 ASP to confirm and liaise with Ausgrid.
Is No Power to the Whole Property Dangerous?
Yes, take this seriously. A dead property while the street has power often means damaged or exposed service mains, and a live low line or failed connection is a genuine safety risk.
- Do not touch the meter box, service line, or any exposed wiring near the property
- A downed or damaged service line can remain live and is extremely dangerous
- This needs a Level 2 ASP the same day, not a wait-and-see approach
What To Do Right Now
Before we arrive, these safe steps keep you safe and help us respond faster once we're on site:
- Check your own switchboard main switch has not simply tripped.
- If neighbours still have power and you do not, stop investigating further yourself.

- Call a Level 2 ASP (Lic #451348C) straight away.
When To Call a Level 2 ASP for No Power in Long Jetty

Why This Is Common in Older Long Jetty Homes
Long Jetty's original fibro and weatherboard cottages carry ageing service connections, and salt-laden air off Tuggerah Lake and the ocean accelerates wear on exposed terminals and joints. Storm season adds further stress to connections that are already decades old, a pattern shared across the wider peninsula.

Common questions
No Power to Whole Property FAQs
A dead property when the street still has power is a specific fault most electricians can't touch. Here's what Long Jetty homeowners need to know.
Is it dangerous if my whole property has no power but the street does?
It can be. A fault in the service mains or connection can leave live wiring exposed or damaged, so treat it as urgent and avoid the meter box until it is checked.
What causes total power loss when neighbours still have power?
Most often a fault in the service mains, the point of attachment, or the main network connection to your property, none of which a standard electrician can legally touch.
What should I do if my whole property has no power?
Check your own switchboard main switch first, then if neighbours have power and yours does not, stop investigating and call a Level 2 ASP straight away.
Do I need a special electrician for this, or will any electrician do?
You need a Level 2 ASP. Only a Level 2 accredited electrician is licensed to work on the service mains and network connection between the pole and your meter.
How much does it cost to fix a total power loss to a property?
We inspect and quote upfront with $0 call-out and a free quote, then fixed pricing before any work starts, so you know the cost before we begin.
Is total power loss common in older Long Jetty homes near Tuggerah Lake?
Yes, ageing service connections on Long Jetty's original mid-century cottages are more prone to failure, particularly after storms off Tuggerah Lake.
