All Queensland homes need to have compliant safety switches installed to provide protection against the very real risk of electric shocks, especially in older homes. Fuse type switchboards in older homes and buildings don’t provide adequate protection from the risk of possible electrical shocks and need to be updated to be compliant with the latest Queensland Government standards.

Modern homes and buildings may also need switchboard upgrades due to the installation of new appliances and increased electrical consumption. Although you may have already upgraded from a fuse type switchboard to a switchboard with safety switches, your home may be using much more power than your switchboard can safely handle. If you’re unsure whether it needs to be updated, our fully licenced and insured electricians can inspect your current switchboard and advise you whether an upgrade is required.
