With around 1552 residents per square kilometre, Bayswater properties have more cable outside the house than in it, and outside is where weather-related faults happen. Bayswater is about 28 kilometres from the CBD. Newer homes here usually have RCBO boards, which is good: the board tells you which circuit failed instead of killing the house.
Being part of Knox, Bayswater follows the same line as everywhere: we make it safe, we document it, and any network-side repair is escalated rather than invoiced. Work in Bayswater slots in beside whatever we have on in Bayswater North, Boronia or Heathmont that day.
The 2021 census recorded 12262 people in Bayswater, an area of roughly 7.9 square kilometres within Knox, postcode 3153. The area we cover around Bayswater runs through Bayswater North, Boronia, Heathmont and Wantirna, and a booking in any of them is treated the same way.
Bayswater sits roughly 2.6 kilometres north-west of Boronia, where we are based. That distance is why a call here is answered from a van that is already in the area rather than from a call centre.
