The switchboard is the heart of your electrical system, distributing power safely throughout your property. At Prolec, we offer professional switchboard installation and upgrades to meet modern safety standards.

A modern switchboard provides

  • Enhanced Safety: Older switchboards may not include important safety features like RCDs or circuit breakers, which can raise the risk of electrical fires or shocks. A switchboard upgrade ensures your system meets Australian safety standards.
  • Increased Capacity: As homes and businesses rely on more devices, older switchboards may struggle to handle the load. A new installation ensures your system can support today’s energy demands.
  • Improved Efficiency: Modern switchboards are designed to optimise energy use, reducing power wastage and lowering electricity bills.

Our licensed electricians assess your property’s requirements and install a switchboard that suits your needs. We also provide commercial mains upgrades for businesses requiring higher electrical capacity. Whether you’re upgrading for safety or installing a new system for a renovation or extension, we deliver professional results with minimal disruption.

FAQ – Switchboard Installations Melbourne

Upgrading your switchboard ensures your electrical system meets modern safety standards, protects against electrical faults, and supports the increased power demands of today’s appliances. Older switchboards may not have safety switches (RCDs) or adequate circuit protection, increasing the risk of electrical fires and shocks.

Common signs your switchboard may need replacement include frequent tripping of circuit breakers, flickering lights, the presence of old ceramic fuses, or if your home is undergoing renovations or adding new high-powered appliances. If your switchboard looks outdated or lacks safety switches, it’s time to consult a licensed electrician.

A modern switchboard installation typically includes new safety switches (RCDs/RCBOs) on all circuits, updated circuit breakers, a new earth electrode, and a fire-resistant enclosure. The installation is carried out by licensed electricians and comes with a compliance certificate to meet Victorian regulations.

Yes, upgrading your switchboard prepares your home for future requirements such as solar panel systems, electric vehicle chargers, and other smart home technologies by ensuring your electrical infrastructure is safe, compliant, and capable of handling increased loads.
