Security lighting
We install and maintain security lights for customers who need extra lighting around their home or business. These lights can illuminate driveways, car parks, yards, signage or garden areas and help improve safety after dark. A suitable SA Power Networks Stobie pole must be nearby for installation, and once connected the light will automatically operate from dusk until dawn.
Security lights look different from standard street lights. They are usually a single LED light mounted directly onto a Stobie pole and angled downwards to light up a specific area. They are not part of the public street lighting network and are installed only at a customer’s request for additional lighting or security on their property.
How can I apply?
You can apply in the following ways:
- Online form: request a quotation for security lighting
- Email: roadlighting@sapowernetworks.com.au
- Phone: 13 12 61
What will it cost?
An initial connection fee covers the security light, installation and eventual removal. You will also be charged a small annual maintenance and service fee. These can be found in our Connections & Ancillary Network Services manual (Manual 18) in our Resource Library.
Your retailer will send a separate invoice for your power use.
What type of security light will be installed?
We currently install a 180W LED floodlight that provides a clean white light.
How can I have a security light removed?
If a security light is no longer required, it can be removed by SA Power Networks. To request removal, please email roadlighting@sapowernetworks.com.au.
Only the person or business responsible for the billing of the security light can request its removal. The billing customer will also need to contact AGL to cancel the retailer account.
Once we receive your request, our Road Lighting team will advise you of the next steps and expected removal timeframes. Our crews will then attend and remove the light and associated equipment.
