Does my Mayfield East cottage need a new switchboard?

If your home still operates on original ceramic fuses, it likely lacks modern RCD protection. Upgrading to a modern switchboard prevents electrical fires and protects your family.

Does the City of Newcastle Council require permits for electrical upgrades?

While minor repairs don't always require council approval, all switchboard upgrades must be performed by a licensed electrician. We provide the mandatory certificates of compliance upon completion.

What is the hourly rate for an electrician in Sydney?

Rates vary based on the specific job requirements and site complexity. Contact our head office for an accurate quote tailored to your specific switchboard upgrade needs.

How long does a typical switchboard replacement take to perform?

A standard upgrade usually takes one day to complete, depending on the current wiring condition. Our target is to restore your power within the same session.

Do I need a level 2 electrician for my switchboard work?

A level 2 electrician is required if the work involves the service line connecting to the street network. We determine this during your initial site assessment.
