FAQ

The cost of a switchboard upgrade depends on the condition and size of your existing switchboard, the number of circuits, the type of protection required and whether additional electrical work is needed. A licensed electrician can inspect your switchboard and provide an accurate quote based on your property and requirements.

Common signs include old ceramic fuses, frequent circuit tripping, a lack of safety switches, overheating or burning smells, damaged components, and insufficient capacity for modern appliances. An upgrade may also be recommended when installing systems such as solar panels, EV chargers or other high-demand electrical equipment.

Not every property needs a complete switchboard replacement, but your existing switchboard should be assessed before installing solar, an EV charger or other high-load equipment. Older boards may lack sufficient space, capacity or appropriate protection, so an electrician can determine whether an upgrade or additional circuit protection is required.

Upgrading an outdated switchboard can improve electrical safety, provide modern circuit protection, increase capacity for today’s appliances and make it easier to add future electrical systems. It can also address issues associated with older fuse boards and inadequate protection.
