Switchboard Upgrades done properly
Your switchboard is where every circuit in the building starts. Older boards often have ceramic fuses, no safety switches, and no spare room for the circuits a modern home needs.
Bryan assesses the board, explains what needs to change and why, and gives you a fixed price before he starts. Upgrades are often done alongside air conditioning installs or renovations, when the existing board cannot safely take the extra load.
Handy terms: Switchboard The panel where power enters your home and is split into circuits. It holds your main switch, circuit breakers and safety switches., RCD (safety switch) Residual current device, also called a safety switch. It cuts the power in a fraction of a second if it detects current leaking where it should not, such as through a person., Compliance certificate The paperwork an electrician provides after testing completed work, confirming it was tested and is safe to use.

What customers say
Highly recommend Bryan for all your electrical needs! From start to finish he was professional, prompt and extremely quick. We had installed, a new aircon, smoke alarms, switch board, ceiling fans (vortex fans are incredible! Worth their price in gold!), some lights and light switches. I highly recommend him and will be contacting Bryan for any work needed again!
We messaged Turco Electrical initially requiring a quote for installation of 2 pre-purchased aircon units. Had Bryan come out to our home to discuss placement and plans. Upon Bryan's further inspection of our new home, he found that there were other electrical concerns which needed prompt addressing. Bryan educated us on these issues, advised different options we could take to ensure that our house was safe in the long run, and that we wouldn't be defected down the track. We received their quote and booked immediately. From the initial message, to end of installation, I couldn't recommend Bryan more. He's prompt, kind, and efficient. We will be getting him back for future installations and upgrades to our home.

How do I know if my switchboard needs upgrading?
Common signs include ceramic fuses, no safety switches, breakers that trip often, scorch marks or a burning smell, or no room for new circuits. Bryan can check it and tell you straight.
What is a safety switch?
A safety switch, or RCD, cuts the power fast when it detects current leaking where it should not, such as through a person. It is one of the most important safety devices in a home.
Can you upgrade my board when you install my air conditioner?
Yes. If your board needs work to carry the new load, Bryan includes it in the quote so you see the full price before any work starts.

Will I lose power during the upgrade?
