Switchboard upgrade options
From a simple safety upgrade to a full replacement that supports solar, air conditioning and EV charging.
Full switchboard replacement
Remove old ceramic or rewireable fuse boards and install a modern metal enclosure with circuit breakers, RCDs or RCBOs, surge protection if required, and clear circuit labelling.
RCBO safety upgrade
Upgrade existing circuit breakers to RCBOs so every final sub-circuit has its own combined overcurrent and residual current protection, meeting current AS/NZS 3000 requirements.
Capacity & mains upgrade
For homes adding solar, air conditioning, EV chargers or granny flats — upgrade the main switchboard, main switch and incoming mains cable to handle the extra load safely.
