Common Questions

Switchboard Upgrade FAQs

Most residential upgrades take 2–4 hours. Power is off during the work, then restored and tested before we leave. We aim to complete same-day in nearly all cases.
Not explicitly illegal to have one, but illegal to modify. Many insurers won't pay out claims if a ceramic fuse box is present. Modern boards also protect against electrocution in a way ceramic fuses simply cannot.
Yes — it's a legal requirement. Any licensed electrician doing switchboard work in NSW must issue a Certificate of Compliance. JNM provides this with every job, usually the same day.
Often yes. If your board is modern enough, we can add RCDs without replacing the whole board — saving you money. We assess this during the quote and recommend the most cost-effective approach.
Safety switches only: $300–$600. Full ceramic fuse box replacement: $1,200–$2,500. Larger homes or adding circuits: $2,000–$4,000+. We always provide a written quote before work begins — no surprises.
Someone 18+ should be present for access and sign-off. We'll book a time that suits you and give a firm arrival window — no waiting around all day.
