Obligation to connect map

This mapping tool has been developed to display which properties in Western Australia are still covered by the “obligation to connect” legislation under electricity regulations — even if the traditional poles and wires have been removed and replaced with SPS.

You can use the tool to:

• Check if your property is eligible for connection under the regulations.
• See if your property is within the 100-metre rule (which gives you connection rights for 10 years).
• Understand whether your property is part of a preserved obligation to connect area - meaning it still has connection rights even after infrastructure changes

• Intended to be general in nature.
• May be based on assumptions.
