East Brisbane Electrical will be my ‘go to’ business for future electrical needs.
      Vicki Kerr

      Claire F
      The guys were really accommodating, did a professional job and were very polite. They took the time to go over everything that they had done and answer any questions.
      Mechelle Brunton
      I found it quite challenging to get an electrician to answer my calls or respond to text messages. How refreshing to find East Brisbane Electrical! Daniel was on time, extremely professional and so capable! I will only use these guys from now on. So impressed!
      Jan La
      I originally had Daniel & team out to replace wired smoke alarm, install extra general power outlets & upgrade ceramic fuses. But ended up with the team doing all these plus upgrading the switchboard , replace ceiling fans to energy efficient ones & replacing cotton electrical cabling too. Across the 3 visits, the team were very friendly, professional & work seamlessly with the tasks. Overall, I’m extremely happy with the results & would highly recommend East Brisbane Electrical for your electrical needs. Thanks Daniel & team for a 5-star service!
      Tony Kalcina
      Our Service Side 80A fuse which protects the Power Meter blew up in a spectacular manner (see photo) at 9pm on a Friday night, causing total blackout of our Home. We rang East Brisbane Electrical 24 Hours emergency number. We received immediate friendly support and within 30 minutes Daniel, a Level 2 certified Electrician, was at our Home replacing the 80A Service side Fuse, installing a Lightning Protector and ensuring all wiring was perfect! He was a true professional, providing safety advice, a 5 year Warranty and great value. I strongly recommend East Brisbane Electrical!
      Susie Lorentz
      We lost our power overnight due to minor flooding, Nathan arrived promptly and gave us a detailed quote. Unfortunately our switchboard was non compliant, we had some safety issues, but a full day later we were back up and running. Daniel and Braydon worked really hard and efficiently all day, communicating what was happening and as more rain was expected, they even tarped our eave that was leaking. They left the premises neat and clean, even wiping down the walls. I highly recommend them.
      Alistair G
      Daniel, Chris, Braydon and the team have been fantastic to work with, great quality and very professional service. Ill be using them again on all future electrical work
      Connie Wang
      It’s amazing how Daniel and Chris came to solve a complex problem and restored the power that my previous electrician was unable to figure it out. They provided prompt and outstanding service! Highly recommended it!
      Norm Krieke
      East Brisbane Electrical were excellent in the work they did, which included everything from replacing an out of date switchboard throught to installing lighting / exhaust fans and upgrading power points. Their initial quote was comprehensive and well explained, and the team arrived on time when they said they would. Nothing was too much trouble. We will use them again for our future electircal needs.
      Rebecca
      Daniel has done an absolute stellar job changing our switchboard and reenergising our shop after the explosive fire next door and really put in the hard yakka over two full days. He was prompt to reply and professional and very much on-time. I highly recommend Daniel and his team, and will be using them in future.
      Jessica Maher
      Big thanks to Braeden for fixing the electrical issue in our apartment. I was incredibly impressed with Brayden's professionalism, passion for his work and his attention to detail. He also explained the issue to me at every point and made sure I understood what was needed and how to address any issues in future.

      Common Questions Answered

      FAQs About Switchboard Upgrades

      Still have questions about our switchboard upgrade services in East Brisbane? Check out these frequently asked questions or reach out to our team for expert electrical advice. We’re here to help you determine if a switchboard upgrade is right for your home or business.

      Common signs include frequent circuit breaker trips, flickering lights, buzzing sounds from the switchboard, fuses that regularly blow, a lack of safety switches, or an old ceramic fuse box. If your home was built before 1990 or you’re installing new appliances like air conditioning or an electric vehicle charger, you likely need an upgrade. Our electricians can assess your current switchboard and recommend appropriate solutions.

      The cost varies depending on your property’s specific requirements, including the size of the switchboard, number of circuits needed, and whether additional work like rewiring is required. We provide detailed quotes after assessing your current setup, ensuring you understand exactly what work is needed and why. Our transparent pricing means you’ll know what to expect before any work begins.

      Most standard switchboard upgrades can be completed in a single day, though more complex installations might take longer. We’ll need to disconnect power during the installation, but we minimise downtime by preparing everything in advance. Our electricians work efficiently to restore your power as quickly as possible, typically within 4-8 hours for a standard upgrade.

      Modern switchboards should include safety switches (RCDs) on all circuits, circuit breakers instead of fuses, adequate capacity for your current and future needs, proper labelling, surge protection, and compliance with current Australian Standards. Our electricians can explain these features and recommend the best configuration for your specific property and electrical usage patterns.

      Yes, all switchboard installations must comply with the Australian Standard AS/NZS 3000 (Wiring Rules) and local regulations. Current requirements include RCD protection for power and lighting circuits, appropriate circuit breakers, proper earthing systems, and adequate clearance space. When selling a property, non-compliant switchboards may need to be upgraded. Our licenced electricians ensure all installations meet or exceed these requirements.
