About switchboard upgrades
Old ceramic-fuse boards were never designed for the load of a modern home, and many lack safety switches entirely. An upgrade replaces the board with circuit breakers and RCD protection on every circuit, which is required before most solar, EV charger and major appliance installs anyway. Electricians will also flag asbestos backing panels, common in boards from the 1960s and 70s, which need licensed handling.
Getting quotes in Somersby
When you enquire about switchboard upgrades, describe the job specifically: what is happening, how long it has been going on, and anything you have already tried. That detail helps a provider assess the request and may improve quote accuracy if they respond.
Local knowledge counts
Somersby sits in the Hawkesbury area. Mention the suburb when you enquire and ask the provider to confirm travel, availability and any callout component before you agree to work.
Quick answers
How do I know an electrician is licensed?+
Ask for their licence number and check it on your state's licensing register (for example, in South Australia use the SA Government trade licence search at sa.gov.au). Legitimate sparkies expect to be asked and will provide a Certificate of Compliance for notifiable work.
Do I need a switchboard upgrade?+
If your board still has ceramic fuses, has no safety switches (RCDs), or trips constantly when you run several appliances, it is due. Upgrades typically cost $800 to $2,000 depending on the board and wiring condition.
Is this service really free?+
Yes. You pay nothing to use this site. We may be paid a referral or advertising fee by electricians and advertisers who appear here, which is how we keep it free.
