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 switchboard to modern standards. This reduces your risk of a catastrophic failure, fire, property damage and electric shock.

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 as the switchboard needs to be built first before the installation.
Yes, we need access to everywhere there is an electrical point in the building so we can complete mandatory testing. If we can’t get access to an area, that area will remain de-energized until we can complete testing there. If the building is a multi-tenanted complex, then access will need to be provided to all units during testing.
That largely depends on the size and complexity of the switchboard upgrade. However, you will be fully informed of the duration of the proposed power outage at the quoting stage.
By law, when you upgrade, the installation must be brought up to the current standards, including the Australian Standards and the Queensland Electricity Metering and Connection Standards.
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.
