After the December 2019 fire
In December 2019 a fire that started in Yanchep burnt about 14,000 hectares across Two Rocks and into the Shire of Gingin. One home was lost and about 6,000 were saved. Afterwards, 70 Western Power crews spent two days rebuilding 10 km of wiring and 150 poles to restore power, as reported locally. For households, it's a reminder to plan for outages: a battery with backup capability, or a safe generator inlet, keeps the essentials running while the network is down.
From the Sun City plans to today
The first houses in the area were built in 1972, after Alan Bond's company drew up plans for a 'Sun City' here. Homes from those early decades can have original switchboards and wiring that need checking before renovations. Larger houses are common too, with 60.0% of homes holding four-plus bedrooms in 2021, and they often need extra circuits for air con in several rooms. We can look at both in a single visit.
Homes near the coast and the new line
This is a coastal suburb covering more than 220 square kilometres, including the whole national park, yet its homes are concentrated near the coast around Marmion Avenue and the beach road. Outdoor fittings close to the sea should be sealed and weatherproof. The rail extension from Butler opened for passenger services on 15 July 2024, and for trips that still start in the garage, an EV charger on its own circuit makes home charging straightforward.

Questions we get asked
Can a home battery keep the power on during an outage?
It can, if the system is set up for backup, which not every battery does automatically. We'll explain which circuits can be backed up, such as the fridge, lights and internet, and wire them so the essentials stay on when the grid goes down. The 2019 rebuild of 150 poles shows why it's worth planning.
We have a 1970s house near the beach. What should be checked?
Start with the switchboard and the wiring. The area's first houses went up in 1972, so original boards may lack safety switches. We also look at outdoor fittings, which face more weather near the coast, and test the smoke alarms. Then you'll know which parts can stay and which need replacing.
