Frequently Asked Questions

Your switchboard is responsible for distributing electricity throughout your home or business and protecting the entire system from electrical faults. Over time, electrical demands change, and older switchboards may no longer meet the required safety standards or be able to handle the increased load.

Here’s why upgrading your switchboard is crucial:

Improved Safety
Older switchboards lack modern safety features, leaving your home or business vulnerable to electrical hazards, including electrical fires. Upgrading your switchboard to a newer model ensures you have circuit breakers, RCDs (residual current devices), and other safety features that protect both your property and the people inside.

Increased Electrical Load Capacity
As homes and businesses add more appliances and electrical devices – like air conditioning, electric vehicles, and high-powered machinery – your electrical load increases. An outdated switchboard may not be equipped to handle this additional demand, which can lead to overheating, tripped breakers, and other dangerous issues. An upgrade ensures your switchboard can handle your needs safely.

Compliance with Modern Standards
Older switchboards may not meet current Australian electrical standards, putting your property at risk of fines or complications when selling or insuring your property. A switchboard upgrade ensures your system complies with the latest regulations, giving you peace of mind and avoiding potential issues down the line.

Preventative Maintenance
If your switchboard is over 20 years old, it’s likely that parts are worn, outdated, or no longer functioning optimally. Upgrading your switchboard can prevent unexpected breakdowns, ensure reliable service, and extend the lifespan of your electrical system.

Enhanced Functionality
Modern switchboards come equipped with advanced features such as surge protection, smart home integration, and better fault detection. Upgrading to a more advanced system allows for more control over your energy use and provides valuable insights into your electrical consumption.

Upgrading your switchboard ensures it can handle modern electrical loads and improves safety by reducing the risk of electrical fires or faults. It also brings your system in line with current safety standards.
If you experience flickering lights or frequent blown fuses, or your switchboard is more than 20 years old, it’s time to upgrade! Older systems may not be equipped to handle the electrical demands of today’s homes and businesses.
The cost of a switchboard upgrade varies depending on the complexity of the job and any additional electrical work required. On average, switchboard upgrades in Brisbane range from $800 to $2,500. Contact us to find out more.
Most switchboard upgrades are completed in one day. However, the exact time depends on the size of your property and the condition of your existing electrical system.
Yes! Only licensed electricians should upgrade a switchboard to ensure the work meets safety standards and local regulations. REPARE Electrical’s team of Master Electricians are fully qualified to perform switchboard upgrades.
