What does a switchboard upgrade involve on the Central Coast?

Fusion fits RCD safety switches, tests every circuit and issues a compliance certificate, and any Level 2 meter work is handled in house.

Lachie was amazing, super helpful and he did a really good job with my switchboard upgrade. Would not recommend him enough, 10/10!
Lucy IsobelSwitchboards
Highly recommend Fusion for any electrical work. Great communication and response. Josh has carried out previous jobs for us and is always excellent. Lachlan attended our last job. He was great! Text as he was on his way, arrived on time, checked everything thoroughly and was very informative. Lovely guy to deal with. Thanks Fusion, a great team!
Peter O'TooleElectrical
We recently used Fusion Project for electrical upgrades, CCTV installation, and a new security system, and the whole experience was excellent. The team was professional, reliable, and communicated clearly throughout the entire process. Their workmanship was outstanding, everything was installed neatly, and they took the time to make sure everything was working perfectly before they left.

What a fantastic experience working with Fusion. The team, especially Lachy, were great to deal with from start to finish. Lachy was incredibly efficient and professional with the work he carried out. He helped us install our new TV and iPad for the performance testing section in our gym, and it looks unreal.

Couldn’t be happier with the work from Fusion Electrical during our renovation. From the initial rough-in right through to the final fit-off, everything was handled professionally and to a very high standard.
Bailey ThomasRenovations
I recently had electrical work completed by this company and couldn’t be happier with the service. Max and Lachlan were both professional, punctual, and extremely knowledgeable from start to finish. They took the time to explain everything clearly.

Max and Lachlan did an unreal job installing ceiling fans and downlights at my house last week, super nice boys and left the place spotless, absolute legends.

Had Lachie come in and do some electrical in my house. He was a tidy efficient worker and had amazing manners towards me and my family. Wouldn’t hesitate in giving him the call out again.

Switchboard Upgrades · Central Coast

Safer power for your home or business

Your switchboard is the heart of your home's electrical system. If it is outdated (ceramic fuses, no RCD safety switches, or a board that keeps tripping), it is not just inconvenient. It is a genuine fire risk and a safety hazard for your family.

Fusion upgrades switchboards and meter boxes across the Central Coast, replacing old fuse boards with modern, compliant switchboards fitted with RCD safety switches on every circuit. An RCD cuts power in milliseconds if it detects a fault, protecting you and your family from electric shock and reducing the risk of electrical fires.

Common signs you need a switchboard upgrade: your board has ceramic fuses (not circuit breakers), your safety switches keep tripping under normal load, your board is hot or shows signs of scorching, you are adding a new appliance or air conditioner that keeps tripping the board, or your sparky has flagged it on a previous inspection.

We upgrade switchboards in homes across Tuggerah, Wyong, Gosford, Terrigal, The Entrance, Bateau Bay, Copacabana, Avoca Beach, Green Point, Tumbi Umbi, Kincumber, Erina and across the wider Central Coast. Most domestic upgrades are completed in a single day with minimal disruption.

RCD safety switches

Installed on every circuit (lighting, power, hot water, air con) to current NSW requirements.

All circuits fitted with correctly rated MCBs replacing old ceramic fuses.

FAQs

Switchboard FAQs

Something else on your mind? Call the office on 0413 684 874.

How do I know if my switchboard needs upgrading?
Key signs: ceramic fuses instead of circuit breakers, no RCD safety switches, frequent tripping, visible scorching or heat at the board, or a sparky flagging it. We can assess it for you.
What is an RCD safety switch?
A residual current device that cuts power in milliseconds when it detects a fault current to earth. Under current NSW regulations, RCDs are required on all circuits in new and upgraded switchboards.
How much does a switchboard upgrade cost?
It depends on the size of your home, number of circuits and condition of existing wiring. We give upfront quotes before any work starts.
How long does it take?
Most domestic switchboard upgrades are completed in a single day. We schedule the work to minimise disruption.
Will my power be off during the upgrade?
Yes. Power will need to be isolated during the upgrade, usually for a few hours. We coordinate timing with you to minimise inconvenience.
Do I get a compliance certificate?
Yes. All switchboard upgrades are notifiable work in NSW and require a certificate of compliance. We provide this on completion.
Do you upgrade meter boxes too?
Yes. Meter box upgrades are often done alongside switchboard work, and we manage the coordination with Ausgrid or Essential Energy as required.
