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)

That might be true, but there are non SWER lines - ie: No Transformer - but still just a wire, makes no difference when you hit them - that are private.

I might not know the right words, we just call them - power lines :-)

In Victoria (Western District) my cousin just put in power to their house (over 10K into their property). Power company would only pay to the edge, and then the rest is up to them, cost them over $30,000 to get it installed, and it is theirs, and theirs to maintain. So that is 10K of power lines in Vic alone that I know of that are private.

Council recently sent us a letter in Panton Hill saying that we have to maintain our own power lines once they are in the property, and up to the first pole the council and utility provider (depending on the circumstance) will help with trees etc.

Granted, above is very anecdotal evidence.
