What Is a Temporary Power Pole?
A temporary power pole is a temporary electrical installation that provides power to a construction site before the permanent electrical connection is available.
Temporary builder’s power allows trades to safely operate tools, lighting and equipment throughout the construction process.
Once your project is complete and permanent power has been connected, the temporary installation is no longer required and can be removed.
When Do You Need a Temporary Builders Pole?
A temporary builders pole is commonly required for:
- New home construction
- Knock-down rebuilds
- Granny flats
- Duplex developments
- Commercial construction
- Industrial projects
- Major renovations
- Property subdivisions
Having temporary power available from the beginning of your project helps improve efficiency and allows construction work to proceed safely.
