Perth Western Power Defect Notice FAQs
What is a private power pole defect notice?
A private power pole defect notice is issued by Western Power when an inspection identifies safety or compliance issues with a privately owned power pole or overhead electrical connections.
Private power poles must meet Australian safety standards and be properly maintained to prevent hazards such as electrical faults, fire risks, or structural failure. If defects are found, Western Power will notify you in writing, outlining the issues, required repairs, and a timeframe for completion.
It’s important to address the defect as soon as possible. In most cases, you’ll need a licensed electrical contractor to assess and repair or replace the pole. If repairs are not completed within the given timeframe, Western Power may disconnect your property from the electricity network or carry out the work at your expense.
If you’ve received a defect notice, contact Limelight Electrix for an inspection and expert repairs to keep your property safe and compliant.

Who is responsible for inspecting private power poles?
Both Western Power and property owners share responsibility for private power pole inspections.
Western Power conducts periodic inspections as part of its duty of care to ensure electrical infrastructure remains safe. However, property owners are also responsible for regular inspections, maintenance, and necessary repairs or replacements to keep their private power poles in safe working condition. Keeping up with these responsibilities helps prevent hazards and ensures compliance with safety standards.
