Switchboard Upgrades & Safety Switches around Windang
Much of the housing in Windang 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.
Lakeside homes often have outdoor areas, jetty lighting or garden power where moisture is the main enemy, so weatherproof fittings and RCD protection matter.
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

Why safety switches matter
A safety switch cuts power in a fraction of a second if current leaks to earth, for example through a person. Older homes often have none, or only one protecting the power points. We'll check what you have and recommend what's needed.
