Switchboard Upgrades in North Shore, Auckland
EWRB-registered electricians, fixed-price quotes, full compliance paperwork on every job.
Switchboard upgrades in Auckland typically run $1,200 to $3,500 depending on circuit count and whether mains work is needed. Ion Electrical provides EWRB-registered electricians for switchboard upgrades across the North Shore. Same-week service is standard, with same-day response for unsafe fuse boards.
An old fuse board is the single biggest electrical risk in most North Shore homes. Ceramic fuses don't trip fast enough to protect people from a fault, RCDs are required on every new circuit, and older boards simply can't carry the load of modern kitchens, heat pumps, EV chargers and solar inverters.
We replace ageing switchboards with a fully tested, AS/NZS 3000 compliant board: properly labelled circuits, RCDs on every required circuit, surge protection where it makes sense, and clean room left for future additions. Every upgrade includes a full safety check on the incoming mains, earthing, and bonding so the whole installation is signed off correctly — not just the new board.
Most residential switchboard swaps are done in a single day. We coordinate the power shutdown with Vector if mains work is required, restore power before dark, and leave you with a Certificate of Compliance and Electrical Safety Certificate emailed the same week.
