Our team has plans in place to ensure essential workers are available to maintain critical operational and business functions and we will respond as we always do.

Our laboratory services are currently not impacted. We have implemented appropriate new procedures for our staff and adjusted the day to day management of the laboratory as required.
As a precaution we request that any deliveries made in person are placed on the trolley provided adjacent to the laboratory door. Please also call ahead if you require replacement oil sample kits. This will help reduce waiting time. If you need to speak to a laboratory staff member please adhere to social distancing recommendations.
Powerlink’s Network Property Services are currently not impacted. Our Business Continuity Plan is in place to continue to receive and conduct property search services for our customers.
Please continue submitting your property searches via our property search page, and these will continue to be processed within two business days of receipt. If you need to speak with a member of our team please email [email protected] during this time.
