When A Switchboard Relocation Makes Sense

There are a few situations that may require relocating your electrical switchboard:

  • Safety hazards: Relocating reduces risks if the switchboard is located in an area prone to moisture, flooding, or mechanical damage.
  • Accessibility issues: Switchboards placed in cramped spaces or high up on walls can be difficult to access for maintenance. Moving it improves access.
  • Remodelling or extensions: If you’re undertaking a major renovation or extending your home or building, the existing switchboard location may need to change to accommodate plans.
  • Electrical capacity increase: Upgrading appliances often requires a bigger switchboard placed in a more optimal spot.
  • Code non-compliance: Older switchboards may not meet current clearance and other standards. Relocating can bring it up to code.

Our experts can advise if relocating your switchboard or meter box makes sense for safety, convenience, and compliance.

Seamless Switchboard Relocation Process

Our electricians take care of the installation process at your new location, including rewiring, installing mounting enclosures, and properly reconnecting the equipment. After moving the switchboard, we rerouted and extended the wiring to ensure seamless functionality.

Before activating the equipment, we thoroughly test all circuits for proper voltage and loads, check earth continuity, and verify the overall safety of the new setup. Once testing confirms reliable operation, we complete the final hookup at the new site.

Our work is not finished until we arrange final inspections, make any corrections needed, and provide compliance certificates. We handle all the details to deliver a smoothly relocated, fully functional switchboard or meter box that meets all electrical codes and standards.

Switchboard Relocation FAQs

Thinking of relocating your electrical meter box in Sydney? Here are some frequently asked questions to help you understand the process.

The main reasons are safety hazards, accessibility issues, renovations, capacity upgrades, or code non-compliance. Our experts can advise if relocating makes sense.

Both are crucial components of your electrical system. The meter box houses your electrical meter, which measures your electricity consumption. The switchboard distributes power throughout your home and provides safety features like circuit breakers. In some cases, the meter box and switchboard might be combined into a single unit.

There are several reasons:

  • Renovations: If your renovation plans involve changing the location of walls or needing easier access to the electrical system, relocating the meter box might be necessary.
  • Accessibility: An inconveniently located meter box can be a hassle. Relocation can improve accessibility for meter readings or electrical work.
  • Safety Concerns: If your old meter box has asbestos panels or outdated wiring, relocating it with a new meter box can enhance safety.

A licensed electrician will handle the relocation, ensuring safety and compliance with regulations. The process typically involves:

  • Inspection: The electrician will assess your current electrical system, including the old meter box and desired new location.
  • Permitting: Depending on your situation, a permit from your local electricity distributor might be required.
  • Disconnection and Relocation: The electrician will safely disconnect power, move the meter box and wiring to the new location, and ensure everything functions correctly.
  • Reconnection and Testing: Power will be reconnected, and the entire electrical system, including the relocated meter box and any new switchboard (if applicable), will be thoroughly tested for safety and functionality.

Not always, but it’s a good opportunity to consider it. Old switchboards might not be able to meet the electrical demands of modern appliances. Upgrading a new switchboard with features like residual current devices (RCDs) can provide additional safety and protection against electrical faults. Electrical service providers can advise you on the best course of action for your specific situation.

Some signs include:

  • Your switchboard is older than 20-30 years.
  • You frequently experience tripping circuits or blown fuses.
  • You have plans to add more appliances, which could overload the current system.
  • Your switchboard has asbestos panels or outdated wiring.

Only a licensed Level 2 electrician can legally perform the relocation process. They have the expertise and qualifications to ensure the work is done safely and adheres to all regulations.
