Dream Home Group - Electrical Planner

---

If your strata  is five units or greater and within a specified area, you must have an electrical planning report no later than January 1, 2026 and all areas by 2028. 

"The purpose of an Electrical Planning Report is to determine how much power is available to your strata corporation, the current demand, possible future demands when upgrades are added for EV charging, heat pumps for units or common areas, and other conversions and whether upgrades will be required."
