WHY UPGRADE YOUR SWITCHBOARD
Your switchboard is the heart of your home's electrical system. If it's outdated or still fitted with ceramic fuses, it may not provide the level of protection expected today. A modern switchboard upgrade improves safety, reliability and prepares your home for future electrical demands such as EV chargers, air conditioning, solar and renovations.
✔ Individual RCBO protection on every circuit
✔ Improved protection against electrical faults
✔ Easier fault finding and maintenance
✔ Ready for EV chargers, solar and home upgrades
✔ Installed to current Australian Standards
Every switchboard upgrade is completed with neat cable management, premium components and thorough testing. We take pride in delivering installations that are safe, compliant and built for long-term reliability.
FAQ
How much does a switchboard upgrade cost?
The cost depends on your existing switchboard, the number of circuits and whether any additional electrical work is required. We provide fixed, upfront quotes after inspecting your installation.
How long does a switchboard upgrade take?
Most residential switchboard upgrades are completed within a single day. We'll advise you of the expected timeframe before work begins.
Will my power be turned off?
Yes. Your electricity will need to be temporarily isolated while we replace and test the new switchboard. We'll minimise downtime wherever possible.
Do I need to replace ceramic fuses?
If your property still has ceramic fuses, upgrading to a modern switchboard with RCBO protection can significantly improve electrical safety and make fault finding easier.
Can you install RCBO protection?
Yes. We install individual RCBO protection on circuits where appropriate, providing combined overload, short-circuit and residual current protection.
Can I install an EV charger without upgrading my switchboard?
Some homes can accommodate an EV charger without a switchboard upgrade, while others may require additional capacity or protection. We'll assess your installation and recommend the best solution.
Do you service both homes and businesses?
Yes. Zhllia Electrical provides switchboard upgrades for residential, commercial and light industrial properties across Melbourne.
Do you provide compliance certificates?
Yes. Where required, all work is completed in accordance with Australian Standards and the relevant certification is provided.
