    level 2 accredited service provider

    If you’ve got existing electrical qualifications such as a Certificate II in Electrotechnology (Electrician) or Certificate III in ESI, you might be eligible to become an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) within the NSW energy supply and distribution network. However, one of the biggest questions you’ll ask is, “what is a level 2 electrician salary?”. Well, in this article, we’ll give you the answer.

    We’ll also discuss exactly what a Level 2 ASP does, and the other benefits of this rewarding career choice.

    What does a level 2 electrician do?

    A Level 2 electrician is responsible for a wide range of tasks within the electrical supply industry (ESI). Unlike general electricians, Level 2 ASPs are authorised to connect and disconnect properties to the electricity network, install and repair underground and overhead service lines, and manage metering services. These tasks are essential for ensuring a reliable and safe supply of electricity to homes and businesses throughout NSW.

    Level 2 electricians also handle complex electrical issues, such as fault-finding and repairs. So, when there’s an outage in your area, there’s likely a Level 2 ASP working on restoring your power.

    Who can level 2 ASPs work for?

    There are three main electricity distributors in the NSW ESI:

    ·        Ausgrid·        Endeavour Energy·        Essential Energy

    However, these three companies hire several different electrical companies and contractors to maintain the network. So, you could work directly for one of the three distributors or for any other licensed ASPs. (To be clear, an Accredited Service Provider (ASP) refers to both electrical companies and individuals).

    What is a level 2 electrician salary?

    The wages a Level 2 ASP can earn will vary depending on the role they perform and who they work for. Certainly, some contractors may pay more than others. As a guide though, a level 2 ASP electrician in Sydney should earn between $90,000 and $120,000 per year. The more experience you have and the higher your Level 2 classification level, the more earning potential you have. It’s important to note that wages can also be severely impacted by the availability of overtime shifts. Being a vital public infrastructure, the ESI often presents electricians with the opportunity to earn over and above a standard salary.

    Required qualifications

    If you want to become an electrician with Level 2 ASP accreditation, you’ll need to follow these steps:

    ·        Complete appropriate electrical training·        Attend ASP Level 2 training·        Apply for registration with the ASP scheme·        Seek endorsement from one of the three electricity distributors
