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. Also known as a temporary builders pole.

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.

    I have used Mark from LangShaw Electrical on a number of occasions to provide LeveL 2 electrical work as part of my electrical contracting business. I have always found Mark to be extremely knowledgeable in all facets of the NSW SIRS (Service and Installation Rules), AS3000 wiring rules and DNSP metering requirements. I would highly recommend Mark for all areas of Level 2 ASP electrical work.

    When the power unexpectedly went out, Langshaw Electrical came to the rescue with impressive speed and professionalism. Mark was an absolute standout—he arrived quickly, diagnosed the issue and had the main fuse replaced in no time. Mark kept me informed every step of the way, explaining the problem in simple terms and making sure I was happy with the process. I couldn’t be more grateful for the prompt service and outstanding support provided. I highly recommend Langshaw Electrical and Mark for anyone in need of trustworthy and efficient electrical work.
