      Vicki Kerr
      {{business:name}} service was excellent from the initial call to book the job, through to advice as to when the electrician was due to arrive and the actual completion of the job. Daniel also gave us advice on other electrical issues we had at no extra charge. Highly recommended
      Claire F
      The guys were really accommodating, did a professional job and were very polite. They took the time to go over everything that they had done and answer any questions.
      Mechelle Brunton
      I found it quite challenging to get an electrician to answer my calls or respond to text messages. How refreshing to find {{business:name}}! Daniel was on time, extremely professional and so capable! I will only use these guys from now on. So impressed!
      Jan La
      I originally had Daniel & team out to replace wired smoke alarm, install extra general power outlets & upgrade ceramic fuses. But ended up with the team doing all these plus upgrading the switchboard , replace ceiling fans to energy efficient ones & replacing cotton electrical cabling too. Across the 3 visits, the team were very friendly, professional & work seamlessly with the tasks. Overall, I’m extremely happy with the results & would highly recommend {{business:name}} for your electrical needs. Thanks Daniel & team for a 5-star service!
      Tony Kalcina
      Our Service Side 80A fuse which protects the Power Meter blew up in a spectacular manner (see photo) at 9pm on a Friday night, causing total blackout of our Home. We rang {{business:name}} 24 Hours emergency number. We received immediate friendly support and within 30 minutes Daniel, a Level 2 certified Electrician, was at our Home replacing the 80A Service side Fuse, installing a Lightning Protector and ensuring all wiring was perfect! He was a true professional, providing safety advice, a 5 year Warranty and great value. I strongly recommend {{business:name}}!
      Susie Lorentz
      We lost our power overnight due to minor flooding, Nathan arrived promptly and gave us a detailed quote. Unfortunately our switchboard was non compliant, we had some safety issues, but a full day later we were back up and running. Daniel and Braydon worked really hard and efficiently all day, communicating what was happening and as more rain was expected, they even tarped our eave that was leaking. They left the premises neat and clean, even wiping down the walls. I highly recommend them.
      Alistair G
      Daniel, Chris, Braydon and the team have been fantastic to work with, great quality and very professional service. Ill be using them again on all future electrical work
      Connie Wang
      It’s amazing how Daniel and Chris came to solve a complex problem and restored the power that my previous electrician was unable to figure it out. They provided prompt and outstanding service! Highly recommended it!
      Norm Krieke
      {{business:name}} were excellent in the work they did, which included everything from replacing an out of date switchboard throught to installing lighting / exhaust fans and upgrading power points. Their initial quote was comprehensive and well explained, and the team arrived on time when they said they would. Nothing was too much trouble. We will use them again for our future electircal needs.
      Rebecca
      Daniel has done an absolute stellar job changing our switchboard and reenergising our shop after the explosive fire next door and really put in the hard yakka over two full days. He was prompt to reply and professional and very much on-time. I highly recommend Daniel and his team, and will be using them in future.
      Jessica Maher
      Big thanks to Braeden for fixing the electrical issue in our apartment. I was incredibly impressed with Brayden's professionalism, passion for his work and his attention to detail.

      Answers to Common Questions

      FAQs About Switchboard Upgrades

      Still have questions about our switchboard upgrade services in Prestons? Browse these frequently asked questions or reach out to our team for expert guidance. We’re here to help you understand how our electrical services can enhance your home’s safety and functionality.

      Warning signs include frequent circuit breaker tripping, flickering lights, burning smells around the switchboard, ceramic fuses instead of circuit breakers, limited power points, and no RCD protection. If your home was built before 1990 or you’re planning renovations, a switchboard assessment is highly recommended for safety and compliance.

      An RCD (Residual Current Device) or safety switch is a life-saving device that quickly disconnects power when it detects an electrical fault or current leakage. It provides critical protection against electric shock, electrical fires, and electrocution by monitoring the flow of electricity and cutting power within milliseconds when an imbalance is detected. Australian electrical standards require RCDs on all circuits in modern homes for enhanced safety.

      The duration depends on the complexity of your existing electrical system and the scope of the upgrade. A standard residential switchboard upgrade typically takes one day to complete. More complex installations, such as three-phase power upgrades or commercial switchboards, may require additional time. Our electricians work efficiently to minimise disruption to your daily routine while ensuring all work meets the highest safety standards.

      No, switchboard upgrades should never be attempted as DIY projects. Switchboard work requires a licenced electrician as it involves working with your property’s main power supply and is regulated by strict electrical safety laws. Incorrect installation can lead to electric shock, fire hazards, and non-compliance issues with your insurance. Our fully licenced and insured electricians ensure all work meets Australian Standards and passes safety inspections.

      In many cases, yes. Older switchboards often lack the capacity and safety features required for modern additions like solar systems or electric vehicle chargers. These technologies create additional electrical load and require specific protective devices. Our electricians can assess your current switchboard and recommend necessary upgrades to safely accommodate these new installations while ensuring compliance with current electrical standards.
