A Private Pillar is essentially a large, weatherproof junction box for electrical connections. Typically green in appearance, they house the incoming mains from an electricity network and the outgoing mains to individual properties or assets. One of the main advantages of Private Pillars is that they help maintain a tidy and organised appearance. Since the Service Mains cables are underground, the Private Pillar is the only visible component of the main electrical infrastructure. Private Pillars also aid in managing transitions in cabling and provide a centralised and accessible connection point for maintenance and future upgrades.

At Valour Services, we specialise in helping homeowners benefit from modern service mains upgrades.

Three Reasons to Install a Private Pillar

There are numerous situations where installing a Private Pillar is essential. Here are three of the most common scenarios:

Subdivision of Land

When a large property is subdivided into smaller lots, each new lot may require its own connection to the main electrical supply. A Private Pillar ensures that each lot has a distinct and manageable connection point.

Upgrading Older Electrical Infrastructure

For properties undergoing electrical upgrades, especially older buildings, Private Pillars modernise the connection point between the property and the electricity network. This is particularly common in apartment complexes and commercial buildings where upgrading the Service Mains cables is necessary to meet increased power demands.

Improving Electrical Safety

Private Pillars enhance safety by providing a centralised, secure point for electrical connections. This reduces the risk of electrical faults and ensures compliance with safety standards.
