Safety Compliant Switchboard Upgrade – Residential

Switchboard in home no longer safety compliant

The homeowner contacted our electrical team due to their existing switchboard no longer meeting the Australian Safety Standards. The electrical switchboard was unsafe and rejected for a new power connection with Energex. Our team was able to upgrade the old switchboard with new circuit protection, main earthing and ensure compliance to the new codes. Power was fully restored within 24 hours of being contacted by the client.

Have you just purchased an older home or thinking about renovating? Considering your switchboard and power capacity is the starting point for home owners when they first move into a property or want to make changes. Here are some key items for all home owners:

  1. Was your home built before 1990?
  2. Do you have frequent tripping of power?
  3. Has the switchboard been inspected by a qualified electrician within the last 2 yrs?
  4. Is the electrical switchboard secure and safe?
  5. Is the electrical switchboard in good condition and secured to the wall?
  6. Is the electrical switchboard in a compliant location?
  7. Do you have sufficient safety switches installed on all required circuits?

Not sure of the answers to any of these? A switchboard upgrade is one of the best investments a home owner can make. Get in touch with our team and we can help you – CONTACT US
