We’re committed to providing a safe and reliable electricity supply. This includes maintaining voltage within the safe levels set out in the Electrical Distribution Code of Practice. 

Extreme weather, traffic incidents and other unexpected events may lead to over or under voltage in the power supply, potentially damaging appliances.

These may include: 

  • power surges – rapid increases in voltage above set levels 
  • brown outs – drops in voltage below set levels. 

If you experience damage due to power surges or brown outs, you can claim for compensation. 

This page guides you through the process of making a claim.
