Switchboard Upgrades & Repairs in Townsville

Call us Today

We have been providing switchboard maintenance and upgrades in Townsville for more than 25 years.

Many homes suffer because of old electrical switchboards with outdated porcelain fuses. Not only can this be potentially hazardous, but the Australian Standards AS3000 regulation calls for porcelain fuses to be updated. Many homes have yet to meet this standard.

This is a big deal, and it’s something that our team of fully licensed electricians is determined to address in the Townsville region.


Fuses are supposed to be built into switchboards and electrical appliances as a failsafe mechanism. Inadequate fuseboxes can cause electrical faults and even fires in some cases.
