What Is a Switchboard and Why Does It Matter?

Your switchboard is the central point where electricity from the main grid gets distributed to every circuit in your property. Whether it’s your lights, power points, or appliances – everything runs through it.

Old switchboards with porcelain fuses or no safety switches increase the risk of:

Electrical fires

Power surges

Electrocution

Modern switchboards include safety switches (RCDs) and circuit breakers, meeting Australian safety standards. If your system is outdated, give us a call. We’ll make sure your home or business stays safe and compliant.

Because switchboards play a central role in transmitting power, Australian electrical standards require safety switches on all modern switchboards. If you’re planning any electrical work, proper compliance is essential.

What’s Included in Our Switchboard Upgrade & Installation Service?

When we install or upgrade a switchboard, we handle everything, including:

  • Safe removal of the old unit

  • New safety switches and circuit breakers

  • Surge protection

  • Electrical defect notice resolutions

  • Neat, compliant installation with future capacity in mind

We work with flush or surface-mounted boards in a range of sizes, depending on the number of circuits needed. Every job includes a detailed assessment of your current system, future load, and location. If you’re wondering about costs, we break it down in our guide on how much it costs to upgrade a switchboard.

After having other electricians try and solve my problem lights, Ali had it fixed first time, no fuss. He was on time, and had everything he needed to get the job done. I would recommend Fox Electricians to everyone!

Russell Jeffery

3am emergency call out on Christmas… absolute champion for getting the lights up. Will definitely be contacting him for any future needs!!

Fatima Bachir

Absolute legend. Had a fan trip the power in my apartment, tried my fuse box but still no power. Ali talked me through finding the mains fuses for the building and turning the power on. Awesome service and did all this for free, so definitely trustworthy which is a rare thing these days.
Once again, legend.

Do You Need a New Switchboard? Here’s How to Know

If you’re seeing any of these signs, it’s time to talk to us:

  • Circuit breakers keep tripping

  • Lights flicker regularly

  • The board smells burnt or feels hot

  • You’re using double adapters or power boards excessively

  • Your home has ceramic fuses or no RCDs

We’ll inspect your current setup and give you honest advice about whether an upgrade is needed.

Why Upgrading an Old Switchboard Is Critical

Old electrical switchboards:

  • May contain asbestos panels

  • Often lack safety switches

  • Are prone to short-circuiting and overloads

  • Pose serious fire and electrocution risks

New switchboards:

  • Prevent circuit overloads

  • Protect against electrical faults

  • Comply with NSW safety regulations

  • Can support solar systems, EV chargers, and future tech

Whether you’re renovating, adding new appliances, or just want peace of mind – now’s the time to upgrade.
