Why Switchboard Upgrades Matter
Old fuse boards can't safely handle EVs, heat pumps or solar. A modern board protects your home and your gear.
RCD safety switches cut power in milliseconds if there's a fault. Most older switchboards don't have them fitted.
An outdated switchboard is a red flag for insurers and buyers if you ever sell your home.
Switchboard Upgrades cost
Number of circuits and RCDs your home actually needs once we've had a proper look.
Whether the board needs a full replacement or just a partial upgrade to pass safely.
Extra capacity required if you're planning EVs, solar or a heat pump down the track.
