Our landlord's real estate agent: "*DO NOT* disconnect the electricity until after we've completed the final inspection."

Tenants Victoria: "Some rental providers and agents will tell you that the utilities need to stay on for a period of time after you move out, usually saying this is needed for the final inspection or to show the property to a new renter. You do not need to do this. You can, and should, arrange for the utilities to be disconnected on your move-out date."
