Plenty of Sydney homes are still running a switchboard designed for a house with a fridge, a kettle and a few lights. Add ducted air conditioning, an induction cooktop, solar and an EV charger, and a board built decades ago is being asked to do a job it was never rated for. Ceramic rewireable fuses offer no protection against electric shock, and older boards often have no safety switches at all.
An upgrade replaces the fuses with circuit breakers, adds RCD safety switches on your power and lighting circuits, and gives you the spare capacity to add circuits later without starting over. Charlie Sparks assesses what you have, explains what actually needs changing, and completes the work in a day for most homes with a Certificate of Compliant Electrical Work issued on completion.
Fully licensed electricians with over a decade of switchboard, mains and metering work across Sydney homes and businesses.
RCD safety switches fitted to power and lighting circuits, giving you shock protection that ceramic fuses simply cannot provide.
Boards sized with spare ways so you can add air conditioning, solar, a battery or an EV charger later without another upgrade.
Most homes are completed in a day, with power off for the shortest time possible and a compliance certificate issued on the spot.
We upgrade switchboards right across Sydney, covering fuse replacements, safety switch installation, meter box relocations and mains upgrades for homes and businesses in these areas.
