Common Questions Before Starting Electrical Work

FAQ

Clear answers to help you make confident decisions.

How much does a switchboard upgrade cost?

Costs vary depending on your existing setup. We provide a clear quote after inspection.

Do I legally need a safety switch?

Yes. Safety switches are required for modern compliance and significantly reduce electrocution risk.

How long does the upgrade take?

Most standard upgrades are completed within one day.

Will my power be off?

Yes, temporarily during installation. We’ll explain timing beforehand.

Is this required for renovations?

Often yes. Renovations that increase electrical load may require a compliant board upgrade.
