FAQs
Everything You Need To Know
How do I know if my switchboard needs upgrading?
Common signs include flickering lights, frequently tripping breakers, burning smells or warm switchboard covers. Older boards with ceramic fuses or no safety switches are often not up to current standards. If you have added new appliances, solar or air conditioning, your board may be undersized. An electrician can inspect it and confirm whether an upgrade is needed.
What are the benefits of a switchboard upgrade?
A modern switchboard improves safety by adding circuit breakers and RCD safety switches that cut power fast during faults. It also helps protect expensive appliances from overloads and electrical surges. Upgrades can boost reliability, especially in homes or businesses with high power demand. You will also be better positioned for future additions like EV chargers, solar or new equipment.
How long does a switchboard upgrade take and will my power be off?
Most upgrades can be completed within a day, depending on the size and condition of your existing setup. Power usually needs to be switched off during the changeover to keep everyone safe. Your electrician will plan the work to minimise downtime and talk you through what to expect. After installation, the board is tested and labelled so you know every circuit is protected and compliant.
