Whether you’re upgrading, replacing or installing a new switchboard, we are the right team of electrical switchboard upgrade specialists for you. Trust the best in the industry!
Your switchboard (or sub-main switchboard) is a critical piece of infrastructure, and can leave you stranded without power for extended periods of time in the event of a critical failure. Older switchboards can also be considerably less safe than a new one, just like an old car! To mitigate this risk, you can upgrade your residential, industrial, commercial switchboard to modern standards to reduce your risk of a catastrophic failure, fire, property damage, or electric shock.
Here at Switchboard Solutions, our electricians specialise in replacing or updating your outdated power switchboards across Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast, Ipswich, Moreton, and Logan areas, as well as installing new ones.
Don’t let your business be held back by an old and outdated switchboard: we make sure you stay compliant with the ever-changing regulations to prevent electrical board faults or infrastructure failure. Older switchboards tend to get overloaded (especially with newer appliances), so it’s important to get a power upgrade to prevent power loss that could last for days or even weeks.
Upgrading your electrical switchboard can have numerous benefits, which include minimising safety concerns, preventing potential fire dangers, and reducing maintenance costs. We offer a number of solutions depending on the state of your electrical switchboard – from warehouses to apartment buildings, we cover it all.
In short: whatever your plans are, our switchboard electricians will provide expert advice on what the best solution is for your premises.

For smaller switchboards that we can source immediately, the turnaround time is usually 2-4 weeks. For larger, customised switchboards, the process usually takes 3-5 months, since the switchboard needs to be built first before the installation.
Yes, we need access to anywhere there is an electrical point in the building so we can complete mandatory testing. If we can’t get access to an area, it will remain de-energised until we can complete testing there.
That largely depends on the size and complexity of the switchboard upgrade. However, we will fully inform you of the duration of the proposed power outage at the quoting stage.
By law, the installation must be brought up to the current Queensland Electricity Metering & Connection standards when you upgrade your system.
We account for most of the fees within our price. At times, we give an estimate for certain aspects of a job if a firm price cannot be finalised during the quoting stage. These can be fees from an electricity retailer, services locator, building works (if required), fault finding, etc. Our extensive experience means you will get as close to a fixed price as possible for the job.
