Your electricity meter and meter panel are where your supply from the grid enters your property. For most Melbourne homeowners, this is a box on the side of the house they’ve never thought much about — until they try to add solar panels, install an EV charger, or get a building inspection that flags it as non-compliant.
The process of upgrading or relocating a meter panel involves your licensed electrician, your electricity distributor (CitiPower, Powercor or United Energy depending on your suburb), and sometimes a metering co-ordinator. Navigating all of that while trying to get a renovation done on schedule is genuinely frustrating without someone who knows the process.
Luno Electrical manages meter panel upgrades and relocations across inner Melbourne. We handle the electrical work, manage the DNSP application and co-ordination on your behalf, and keep you informed throughout — so you don’t have to become an expert in electricity distribution just to get your meter box moved.
We’ve completed dozens of meter panel upgrades across Melbourne’s inner suburbs, including for solar and battery installations, EV charging set-ups, and three-phase supply upgrades.
A meter panel that doesn’t meet current standards isn’t just an inconvenience — it’s a barrier to everything else you want to do with your property. Solar panel approvals can stall. EV charger installation may require a supply upgrade before it’s possible. A building inspection can flag the panel as requiring rectification before settlement.
Delaying meter panel work when it’s needed doesn’t make the problem smaller. It just means more urgency — and potentially higher cost — when you can no longer avoid it.
An upgraded meter panel means your property has the electrical infrastructure it needs — for solar, for EV charging, for a three-phase supply if required, or simply to meet current Australian standards. The process is documented, the compliance paperwork is in order, and you’re not going to hit this barrier again when you plan your next upgrade.
Luno Electrical handles the complexity so you don’t have to.
