Everyone we worked with was really friendly and it really felt like an honest and fair company. Karl was also super lovely with our toddler and dog too! Thanks again!
      Peter M
      Daniel led an excellent team to deliver an electrical upgrade to our apartment. Karl and Remy were professional, punctual and customer and outcome focused in performing works that were at times quite challenging. {{business:name}} will be my ‘go to’ business for future electrical needs.
      Vicki Kerr
      {{business:name}} service was excellent from the initial call to book the job, through to advice as to when the electrician was due to arrive and the actual completion of the job. Daniel also gave us advice on other electrical issues we had at no extra charge. Highly recommended
      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 {{business:name}}! 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 {{business:name}} 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 {{business:name}} 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 {{business:name}}!
      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
      {{business:name}} 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. I'm grateful he came to help us today and truly impressed with his workmanship and attitude. Cheers Braeden and the team at {{business:name}}.

      Common Questions Answered

      Switchboard Upgrade FAQs

      Still wondering about our switchboard upgrade services in Haberfield? Browse through these frequently asked questions or reach out to our friendly team for expert advice tailored to your specific electrical situation. We’re here to help you understand how our reliable electrical services can improve safety and functionality in your home.

      Several warning signs indicate your switchboard needs attention: regular circuit breaker tripping, flickering lights, buzzing sounds from the board, warm or discoloured switch plates, burning smells, or the presence of ceramic fuses rather than circuit breakers. Homes built before 1990 typically have outdated switchboards that don’t meet current safety standards. If you’re experiencing any of these issues in your Haberfield home, it’s time to contact Haberfield Electrical for a professional assessment.

      Most standard residential switchboard upgrades can be completed within a single day, though more complex installations or commercial properties may require additional time. We understand disruption to your power supply is inconvenient, so our electricians work efficiently to minimise downtime. Before beginning work, we’ll provide a clear timeframe based on your specific requirements and property configuration. We can often schedule the upgrade during periods that cause minimal disruption to your household or business operations.

      Yes, safety switches (Residual Current Devices or RCDs) are mandatory in all Australian homes according to current electrical safety regulations. These devices monitor the flow of electricity and quickly shut off power when they detect a fault, potentially preventing electric shocks and electrical fires. If your home has an older switchboard without RCDs, it’s not only dangerous but also non-compliant with current standards. Our switchboard upgrades include professional installation of RCDs to bring your electrical system up to code and significantly enhance safety.

      Fuses and circuit breakers both protect electrical circuits from overloads, but they function differently. Old ceramic fuses contain a wire that melts when overloaded, requiring complete replacement after tripping. Circuit breakers, however, use an electromagnetic switch that can be reset after tripping. Circuit breakers provide superior protection, allow easier identification of electrical problems, eliminate the need to stock replacement fuses, and offer consistent protection levels. Modern switchboards use circuit breakers exclusively due to their enhanced safety features and convenience.

      Absolutely. In fact, many homes in Haberfield require switchboard upgrades before installing solar systems or electric vehicle charging stations. These high-demand applications often exceed the capacity of older switchboards. Our upgrade services include assessing your current and future power needs, then designing a switchboard solution that accommodates these modern energy technologies. We can install dedicated circuits, appropriate protection devices, and even three-phase power connections if needed for larger systems. This ensures your new energy technologies operate safely and efficiently.
