Hi PerthPowerPro, I recently went through a pole replacement. It's crucial to check if the defect notice comes from Western Power or if it’s a private issue. Western Power should give you clear instructions on how to address the defect notice.

That's right, ElectricLiz. Also, be aware that weather conditions in Perth can significantly impact the timing of power pole installations. It’s advisable to schedule repairs during dry weather periods to avoid complications.

Adding to Wattson's point, consider the type of pole being installed. Steel poles are common but have different longevity. Verify with your Consumer Pole Replacement Perth installer what the best option is based on your location and power needs.
