Changes to the Inspection Customer Installation Fee

What is happening?

From 1 October 2024 payment of the Inspection Customer Installation fee in the Essential Connections Portal will move from the submission of the Certificate of Compliance Electrical Work (CCEW) to the request for a Connection Application.

This change allows Electrical Contractors to complete the CCEW through the Essential Connections Portal without having to make a payment if the Customer Installation Inspection fee has been paid at the time of the Connection Application.

What do you need to do?

  1. Communicate this information to relevant members of your organisation.
  2. It is important to submit an Intent to Connect (ITC) case into the Essential Connections Portal prior to submitting the CCEW.
