Switchboard upgrades
in Collingwood.

Collingwood's cottages and terraces were wired when a house needed little more than a few lights. Since then, the wiring has been extended many times, and the board has become the weakest link, often with ceramic fuses, no safety switches and no spare capacity. A modern board gives each circuit its own breaker, adds RCD protection and has room to grow. For warehouse conversions and studios the board might sit in an awkward spot or have been squeezed into a cupboard, so we look at whether it's accessible and correctly labelled. Small businesses in the backstreets may need a three-phase check as well. We aim to keep the footprint small, so the new board lands where the old one was where we can. Every circuit is tested, labelled and documented, so the next electrician, or the next owner, knows exactly what they're looking at.

What the job involves, warning signs and what's included are on our main switchboards page. For everything else we do locally, see electrician Collingwood.
