Safety first
Modern switchboards for Taupō homes
Your switchboard is the heart of your home’s electrical system. Older boards with rewireable ceramic fuses offer no protection against electric shock and can’t cope with the demands of a modern household. Upgrading to an RCD-protected board is one of the best safety investments you can make.
Signs you need an upgrade
- Ceramic or rewireable fuses instead of circuit breakers
- No RCD (safety switch) protection on your circuits
- Frequent tripping or fuses that keep blowing
- A full board with no room to add circuits for renovations or a heat pump
- Buzzing, warmth or scorching at the board — call us straight away
What an upgrade involves
We replace the old board with a modern enclosure fitted with circuit breakers and RCDs, test every circuit, and leave it clearly labelled. Most upgrades are completed in a day with minimal disruption, and we’ll let you know in advance about the short power-off period.
Future-proofed
A new board gives you spare capacity for the things people add later — heat pumps, EV chargers, solar. We size it with a bit of headroom so you’re ready.
