Is your switchboard keeping up?

Your switchboard is the hub of your home's electrical system and plays a vital part in keeping your family safe. If it's older and doesn’t contain newer safety devices, it might be time to take a look at whether it's still doing the job properly.

At Forrest Electrical we know switchboards aren't something most people spend a lot of time thinking about, and the technical side of things can be confusing. That's why we like to keep things straightforward.

We'll take a look at what you've got, explain what's going on in a way that’s easy to comprehend and talk you through your options. No unnecessary jargon and no trying to sell you something you don't need.

When might you need a switchboard upgrade?

• Your switchboard has outdated safety devices such as ceramic rewirable fuses

• Your power regularly trips or overloads

• Your home's electrical needs have increased

• You're unsure about the condition of your current electrical system

Every home is different, so we'll assess your individual setup and help you work out what makes sense.

Straightforward advice and practical solutions

Sometimes a switchboard upgrade is part of a larger project, and sometimes it's simply about bringing an older electrical system up to scratch.

Whatever the reason, We'll explain what needs to be done and why, and work with you to find the most practical and cost-effective solution.

We also understand that having electrical work done in your home or rental can be disruptive. We'll do our best to keep things organised, work tidily and leave your space as neat as possible when the job is done.
