Protect your home with a switchboard upgrade from Norris Electrical. We upgrade old and outdated switchboards across Sunbury and surrounding areas to current Australian standards.
Your switchboard is the heart of your home’s electrical system. It distributes power to every circuit in the house and, critically, it is where your safety switches and circuit breakers live to protect you from electrical faults and fires. If your switchboard is old, it may not be up to the job.
Norris Electrical upgrades old and outdated switchboards for homes across Sunbury and surrounding areas. Whether you have an old ceramic fuse board, a switchboard without safety switches, or one that simply cannot handle your home’s current electrical load, we will bring it up to current Australian standards safely and efficiently.
A lot of people confuse safety switches and circuit breakers. They both live in your switchboard but they do very different things:
Having circuit breakers is not enough on its own. You need safety switches too. Norris Electrical ensures your switchboard has both, correctly installed on all required circuits. See our safety switches page for more detail.
Not sure if your switchboard needs attention? Here are the signs that it is time to call Norris Electrical:

We inspect your existing switchboard, check the condition of all circuits and breakers, and identify exactly what needs to be done to bring it up to current standards.
Quote and planning
We provide a clear, itemised fixed-price quote and coordinate any required power isolation with your network provider before scheduling the work.

Your new switchboard is installed, all circuits are correctly wired and labelled, and safety switches are fitted on all required circuits to current Victorian standards.
