Frequently Asked Question
How much does a switchboard upgrade cost in Sydney?
Most Sydney homes pay between $1,600 and $4,500. Larger properties or three-phase upgrades may cost $6,500 or more. Every LiveGrid NSW quote is fixed-price with no hidden extras.
How long does a switchboard upgrade take?
Most standard residential upgrades are completed in a single day, between 3 and 8 hours. Apartments or commercial properties may take longer.
Do I need a new switchboard for solar or EV charging?
Yes. Most old fuse boxes cannot handle the load of solar inverters, batteries, or EV chargers. A modern switchboard ensures your home is safe and compliant.
What happens if I've received an Ausgrid defect notice?
You must upgrade within the deadline to avoid fines or disconnection. LiveGrid NSW prioritises these jobs and provides the certification needed to clear the notice.
What is included in a switchboard upgrade?
Removal of the old fuse box, installation of a modern compliant board with circuit breakers and RCD safety switches, surge protection, full circuit testing, and an NSW Electrical Safety Certificate.
Will upgrading my switchboard help with my insurance?
Yes. Many insurers require a compliant switchboard as a condition of coverage. An upgraded board with safety switches helps keep your insurance valid.
