FAQ

Do I need a switchboard upgrade to meet current standards?
Not always — but if your board uses old rewirable fuses or lacks RCD protection, an upgrade is often recommended for safety and compliance.

Will the power be off during the upgrade?
Yes, temporarily. This is discussed clearly before work starts so you can plan around it.
