...Just got the replies
by Scott and Derek, sorry, SWER wires are private? Huh?
Once you hit the first pole on your own property, the wire and poles to
your house are yours.
You are required to maintain them.
Only
in rare instances is there private ownership of poles and wires in SA (and other
states are similar I believe since all the state governments tended to
plagiarise off each other when they wrote their respective legislations).
Of course you still need an authorised electrician to do it - just like
you do wiring in your own house.
For this reason, companies will only keep the data to that first pole, as
they could move on your house - and it is not their responsibility - just like
they don't keep any data to what power points you have in your house.
Of course there are SWER lines that are not private, but not many, most
use 3 wire systems (same principle, but all 3 phases and easier to see).
There
are _no_ private SWER lines in SA. The utility owns the SWER line up
to the transformer pole at the house, the transformer, the LV feed into the
house and the meter.
(There
are tens of thousands of kilometres of SWER in SA)
\Any electricity
Supplier will still have this information in spatial format, which is
interrigatable by us, most local councils have some kind of cartographic and
planning division also...
I don't think so. I will ask our
local councillor (my dad is one) and chat to them, but it is not
normal for them to keep private stuff.

SWK
