There are some instances where you may want to arrange the power to be permanently disconnected such as when demolishing or removing a building.
You may also want to organise a long term disconnection if you're away for long periods from a property like vacant houses, baches, or farm equipment that’s only used seasonally.
Your electricity retailer is the company that can organise the permanent disconnection for you. You'll need to give them your ICP (Installation Control Point) number which can be found in the meter box or on your power bill.
They will then authorise one of the following approved contractors to carry out the work.
| Northland Power Services 021 195 6099 admin@northlandpowerservices.co.nz |
| MEC Electric 021 468 855 mecelectric.north@gmail.com |
| 2 Ducks Contracting 021 623 127 2duckscontracting@gmail.com |
| Bright Power 021 623 127 leslie@brightpower.net.nz |
If your power has been disconnected for six months or more, then legally the electrical connection at your property will need to be inspected before reconnection can occur.
This includes temporary builder’s supplies, pumps, cowsheds and houses or baches regardless of age. See our 'Getting Electricity Reconnected' for further information, or to contact us, click here.
