Switchboard upgrades

Your switchboard controls every circuit in the building. We upgrade older boards and fit new ones.

Adelaide only. In Melbourne we only install solar and home batteries. See the Adelaide suburbs we cover.

Signs you need a switchboard upgrade

Older boards weren’t built for today’s appliances and chargers.

  • Breakers or safety switches trip often

    Frequent trips can mean an overloaded circuit or a fault that needs finding.

  • Ceramic fuses or an older-style board

    Older boards often lack the protection modern RCBOs and safety switches provide.

  • Adding solar, air‑con or big appliances

    New loads may need more circuits or more capacity than your current board has.

  • Flickering lights, or a warm or buzzing board

    Heat, buzzing or discolouration around the board are warning signs to act on.

Your options

After we check the board, we’ll talk you through which of these suits you.

  • Add RCBOs and safety switches

    If the board itself is in good condition, we keep it and upgrade the protection.

  • A new single-phase board

    Replaces an old fuse board, with circuit breakers and safety switches on every circuit.

  • A 3-phase switchboard

    For bigger loads than a single-phase supply can handle.

What a switchboard upgrade includes

  • Assessment of your switchboard and wider electrical system
  • New board or protection devices installed
  • Circuits arranged neatly on the board
  • Testing and a walk-through at handover

Switchboard upgrades FAQs

Other questions? Call 0457 525 253, 24/7.

An RCBO combines a safety switch and a circuit breaker in one device, protecting each circuit individually. Read our article: What is an RCBO?

It depends on your supply and the loads you run, such as large air-con systems or workshop equipment. We’ll assess it with you. Read our article: What is a 3-phase switchboard?

No. Switchboard work must be done by a licensed electrician.

Power out or a burning smell?

Our Adelaide electricians attend breakdowns 24/7, find the fault and get the power back on.

Safe steps while you wait

  1. If anyone is hurt or in danger, or there’s a fire, call 000 first.
  2. Keep everyone away from sparking, smoking or damaged equipment and fallen wires.
  3. Don’t touch the fault. Only switch off at the main switch if it is safe and dry to do so.
  4. Call us and tell us what you can see, hear or smell.
