Today’s air conditioners, ovens and chargers ask a lot of a switchboard, which is why the outdated unit is replaced with one fitted with circuit breakers and safety switches. After reconnecting and testing each circuit, the electrician labels them all and issues a certificate of compliance.
Switches or fuses that feel hot to the touch are a sign the board is under strain. Heat at the panel points to connections or parts that are no longer coping. A licensed electrician should inspect it before the problem worsens.
How the cost is calculated rests on real factors like the panel condition, the number of circuits, and whether safety switches and surge protection are included. Rewiring or asbestos handling, where required, are factored in clearly. We charge no callout fee and the written quote is free.
We send licensed and insured electricians to every call, so your switchboard is always in capable hands. The completed work complies with Australian standards and carries a certificate of compliance. A lifetime labour guarantee backs the job.
Boards that still use old style fuses give no defence against the kind of current leak that injures people. Replacing that arrangement with safety switches brings genuine shock protection that the older setup never offered.
For a typical home you can expect a few hours up to about a day. Many straightforward boards are handled with same-day service in one appointment. We keep the supply interruption brief and restore power promptly once testing is complete.
Helping the people around us is what keeps us busy, so the local area and the nearby suburbs are our home turf. We reach into the wider region as well. Give us a quick call and we will confirm we cover you.
Proper handling is essential because some older panels were built with asbestos backing that releases fibres if mishandled. We apply the correct containment and removal steps before fitting a current board. That careful method is what keeps the job safe.
We provide 24/7 emergency service for switchboard faults, so a sparking, burning smell, breakers that will not reset, or a sudden total power loss can be attended to at any hour. If it is safe to do so, turn off the main switch and call us straight away. Our licensed electricians will make the situation safe and put the cause right.
Compliance and safety are confirmed at every step, so the board meets current Australian standards. We issue a certificate of electrical compliance and back the labour with a lifetime guarantee.
If you can smell something hot near the meter box, do not wait, because a switchboard problem can escalate quickly. Wellington Switchboards offers 24/7 emergency service across Wellington to make your switchboard safe again.
