Switchboard upgrade

Safe. Compliant. Future-Ready.


At RS Electrical, we provide switchboard upgrades for homes, rental properties and small commercial sites across Melbourne’s western suburbs. All work is carried out by a registered and insured electrician.


We ensure your installation is:

  • Compliant with current Australian Standards (AS/NZS 3000)
  • Fitted with RCD/RCBO safety switches
  • Protected with modern circuit breakers
  • Safe for today’s electrical demands
     

⚠️ Signs You Need a Switchboard Upgrade

  • Old ceramic fuses
  • No safety switches installed
  • Circuits constantly tripping 
  • Burning smell or heat in the board 
  • Flickering lights 
  • Renovations or new appliances being added
  • Solar or EV charger installation planned
  • Rental compliance upgrade required
     

Why Switchboard Upgrades Are Important

Older switchboards were not designed for:

  • Modern kitchens
  • Induction cooktops
  • Air conditioning systems
  • EV chargers
  • High-powered ovens
  • Solar systems
     

An outdated board increases the risk of:

  • Electric shock
  • Electrical fires
  • Insurance issues
  • Non-compliance for rental properties
     

Upgrading protects your family, tenants and property.


What’s Included in a Switchboard Upgrade?

Every installation includes:

✔ Removal of old fuse holders
✔ Installation of modern circuit breakers
✔ RCD/RCBO safety switch protection
✔ Labelling of circuits
✔ Testing & verification
✔ Certificate of Electrical Safety issued
✔ Clean and professional finish


Rental Property Switchboard Upgrades

If you are a landlord or property manager, your property must meet Victorian rental safety requirements.


We work with:

  • Property managers
  • Real estate agencies
  • Landlords
  • Body corporates
     

We provide fast turnaround and compliance documentation.


Can I Upgrade Before Installing Solar or an EV Charger

Yes — and in many cases, you must.

Most solar systems and EV chargers require:

  • RCD protection
  • Adequate main switch capacity
  • Available DIN rail space
  • Updated MEN connection


How Much Does a Switchboard Upgrade Cost?

Pricing depends on:

  • Single phase or three phase
  • Number of circuits
  • Existing board condition
  • Additional works required
     

We provide transparent, upfront quotes after inspection.

No hidden surprises.
