SA Power Networks standard drawings & connection standards

SA Power Networks is the electricity distributor for all of South Australia. If you're doing connection, metering or supply work on its network, SA Power Networks's standard drawings and network technical standards are the rules that apply on the network side of the meter. Here's where to find the official documents — we link to them, we don't host them.

What these cover

On SA Power Networks's network across all of South Australia, the standard drawings and network standards set out how the connection between the network and an installation must be built — service and point-of-attachment arrangements, metering and CT positions, underground and overhead service rules, pillar and pit details, and clearances. SA Power Networks publishes these openly, so you can reach the current drawings without an account. They sit alongside the wiring rules (AS/NZS 3000) and South Australia's installation rules (administered by Consumer and Business Services (SA)), and they're revised periodically — always work from SA Power Networks's current published version, not a saved copy.

We're an independent directory of suppliers.
