Yes, nbn needs to review the location of the Lead in Conduit (piping from the property boundary to external wall of the house) to verify the connection specifications.

Cabling resources
In-home cabling for the nbn™ access network for your nominated technology must be done by registered cablers using our guidelines. You may need to supply in-home cabling for the pre-installation of the nbn™ connection box.
Work with an nbn™ trained New Developments supplier
We encourage developers (big and small) to seek the assistance and support of an industry professional or an nbn™ trained New Developments supplier - designer or installer. As it’s your responsibility to ensure the design and build of the nbn™ infrastructure within your property boundary meets our standards, the assistance of an expert can be extremely helpful.
