Lookup DNSP by Postcode Tool

What the Lookup DNSP by Postcode Tool Does

Type a 4-digit postcode into the free DNSP postcode lookup tool. The tool shows the Electricity Distributor (DNSP) for that area with the contact details that the distributor publishes:

• Faults & Outages: the 24/7 phone number.
• General Enquiries: the phone number for other questions.
• Email and outage map: where the distributor publishes them.
• Website, contact page and postal address.

The Electricity Distributor (DNSP) owns and operates the poles and wires of the local network. Use this tool for the fastest start when you do not have a bill at hand. To choose a lookup tool, or to see why you might need your distributor (smart meter data above all), see Lookup your DNSP by Postcode, Suburb or NMI.

How to Use the Lookup DNSP by Postcode Tool

1. Open the tool.
2. Type the 4-digit postcode. The answer appears when you type the 4th digit.
3. If the tool shows more than one distributor, use the NMI on your bill to find the exact one.
4. Read the contact details. On a phone, tap the Faults & Outages number to call it.

To link straight to an answer, add the postcode to the tool address, for example /online-tools/lookup-dnsp-by-postcode-tool/app/?postcode=3000.

Postcodes on a Network Border

Network boundaries do not follow postcode boundaries. For a postcode that borders more than one network, the tool shows every distributor for that postcode. Exactly one Electricity Distributor (DNSP) serves each electricity connection. The NMI (National Metering Identifier) on your bill gives the exact answer: type it into the Lookup DNSP by NMI Tool.
