Your switchboard is the heart of your home's electrical system — and an old one with ceramic fuses or no safety switches is both a safety risk and a bottleneck for everything you want to add, from air con to an EV charger.

Sora Electrical upgrades switchboards to modern standards — proper safety switches (RCDs), surge protection and the capacity to run today’s homes — neatly installed and fully compliant.

Signs you might need switchboard upgrades

  • Old ceramic fuses or no safety switches
  • Lights flickering or breakers tripping often
  • Adding air con, a pool, or an EV charger
  • A renovation or extension
  • Buying a home with an ageing switchboard
