Questions, answered.
How much does a switchboard upgrade cost?
It depends on the size of your home, how many circuits you have and what's there now. We check your board first and give you a fixed price before any work starts.
How long will the power be off?
Usually part of a day while we swap the board over. We'll tell you how long beforehand so you can plan around it.
Do I get a certificate?
Yes. When the work is done you get a Certificate of Compliance and an Electrical Safety Certificate, as required in New Zealand.
Not sure? We'll check it.
A local electrician will take a look and tell you straight.
