What we see in Shellharbour homes

Shellharbour has grown fast, so much of the stock is post-2005 with modern switchboards and adequate service. Straight installs are the norm. VERIFY.

Shellharbour is a separate council from Wollongong. Endeavour Energy still handles the network side, so the notification process is identical.

Worth knowing locally. Shell Cove is new enough that many homes were built three-phase-ready. Worth confirming - it opens up 11 kW charging.
