    Commercial Switchboards FAQs

    When should a commercial switchboard be upgraded?+

    If you have frequent tripping, an older board, added equipment, a new fit-out, or you’re increasing load (like EV charging), it’s worth assessing the switchboard for safety and capacity.

    Can you minimise downtime during switchboard upgrades?+

    We plan works carefully and discuss timing options. The exact downtime depends on scope, site access and switchboard condition.

    Do you provide ongoing maintenance after the upgrade?+

    Yes. We can support ongoing maintenance through a maintenance contract, including general electrical support and planned site checks.
