SWITCHBOARD UPGRADES
Your switchboard is the heart of your home’s electrical system.
If it’s old, overloaded, or still rocking ceramic fuses, it’s not just a nuisance, it’s a risk.
Modern switchboards give you better protection, fewer surprises, and the peace of mind that your place is wired for the future.

WHY UPGRADE?
Safety first!
Old boards often don’t have RCDs (residual current devices), which trip instantly if there’s a fault and protect you from electric shock. They’re now standard, required for compliance, and for very good reason.
Fewer headaches
Old switchboards can be a real pain, with constant tripping, flickering lights, and fuses that blow at the worst possible time. An upgrade means smoother, more reliable power throughout your home or business.
Ready for today's load
Heat pumps, EV chargers, spa pools, and all the gadgets we plug in every day put way more demand on your system than it was built for decades ago. A modern switchboard keeps everything running without overloading or cutting out.
