Switchboard Upgrades & Safety Checks

Overview

Your switchboard is the control centre for every circuit in your home. Older boards, especially in villas and bungalows built decades ago, weren't designed for modern appliances, heat pumps, or EV chargers, and that gap is where real safety risk creeps in.

Inlighten Electrical upgrades outdated switchboards with modern circuit protection and carries out full safety checks, so you know exactly where your home stands, not just a tick-box compliance certificate.

FAQs

How do I know if my switchboard needs upgrading?

Warning signs include an old fuse-style board, frequent trips, or a board that's never been checked. A safety check will confirm either way.

Is a safety check required when selling a home?

It's not always mandatory, but it gives buyers confidence and can prevent issues at settlement.

Is it possible to monitor which circuits are using the most power?

Of course. As Basis approved installers, we offer assessments and installations of Basis Smart Switchboards.
