Switchboard upgrades for Waratah homes

With Federation and inter-war homes close to the rail line common around Waratah, older ceramic fuse boards and switchboards missing safety switches are something we see regularly here. We upgrade boards to current AS/NZS 3000 standards — RCBOs, surge protection and proper circuit separation, fixed-price.

Workers' cottages along the rail corridor here commonly need a full switchboard modernisation before any EV charger or solar work can go ahead.

FAQs

Common questions

How common are old switchboards in Waratah?+

Workers' cottages along the rail corridor here commonly need a full switchboard modernisation before any EV charger or solar work can go ahead. Worth a check if yours hasn't been touched in a while.

Is a safety switch legally required?+

Safety switches are required on all circuits in rental properties in NSW, and strongly recommended for every home. It's one of the most common compliance gaps we're called out for.

Can you upgrade my switchboard before I install an EV charger in Waratah?+

Yes — we check switchboard capacity as standard whenever we quote an EV charger install, and can handle both jobs in the one visit if an upgrade's needed.

How far out of Waratah do you travel for this kind of job?+

Waratah is around 7 minutes from Wallsend, and we regularly cover the surrounding area including Jesmond, Georgetown and Mayfield on the same trip.
