Switchboard Upgrades & Safety Switches around North Wollongong
Much of the housing in North Wollongong was built decades ago. Older homes like these often still have original switchboards, ceramic fuses or only one or two safety switches, and wiring that was never designed for today's appliances.
Switchboard upgrades are one of the most common jobs in older homes. Replacing ceramic fuses with circuit breakers and safety switches on every circuit is a real safety improvement.
Being close to the water, salt air is hard on outdoor fittings, so we recommend marine-grade or sealed (IP-rated) fittings outside and check for corrosion in meter boxes and outdoor points.
What we do
- Old ceramic fuse boards replaced with modern circuit breakers
- Safety switches (RCDs) added to power and lighting circuits
- Extra capacity for air-conditioning, EV chargers, pools and renovations
- Sub-boards for sheds, granny flats and extensions
- Nuisance tripping found and fixed
- Surge protection

Done once, done right
We test every circuit after the upgrade, label the board clearly, and leave you with a board that's easy to understand.
