The inspections will also be undertaken over Waterford Park, Sunday Creek, Alexandra, Acheron, Taggerty, Maintongoon, Thornton and Bylands.
Helicopters enable AusNet to have a bird’s-eye view to detect and repair any wear and tear on powerlines and poles.
Each year, the company inspects around 40,000 poles, with inspections taking place throughout the year in an effort to keep the AusNet distribution network safe and reliable.
The routine aerial inspections help support a reliable and safe electricity supply for Victorian communities.
