Managed through a property manager and a formal rental agreement? Hmm. I'd play this a bit clever. Intentionally trip it on days when you know the OC can get you back up and running. Over a week or 2 build up a report, when it tripped and how long it took to get resolved, then report to the property manager that it isnt safe/feasible to wait X ammount of time to get your power back.
That way if you gotta breach 'em and go before VCAT it helps you already have logs and experience with the issue.
Keep in mind, this is gonna sour the relationship with the landlord though. Be prepared to move in 12 months, but it doesnt sound like that'd be a huge loss anyway.
