Switchboard upgrades in Ocean Grove and the Bellarine

An old switchboard is the single most common reason a home cannot safely take an EV charger, heat pump or battery. Aaron replaces ceramic fuse boards and overloaded panels with modern boards fitted with safety switches, clearly labelled and ready for what you want to add next.

Common questions

How do I know if I need a new switchboard?

If it has ceramic fuses, no safety switches, scorch marks or is crowded with add-ons, it is worth having checked. Aaron can look at it and give you an honest recommendation.

Will the power be off during the upgrade?

Yes, for part of the day. Aaron plans the job to keep the outage as short as possible and will tell you in advance.

Do I need a switchboard upgrade before an EV charger?

Often. The board needs spare capacity and safety protection to carry the extra load. Aaron checks this when quoting the charger.
