We experienced fantastic work by multiple members of the Melbourne Voltage team when they upgraded our old switchboard and installed new safety switches throughout our house. Couldn’t be happier.

Most switchboard problems start off small, but they can turn into real safety risks pretty quickly if you leave them. MV Switchboard Upgrades replaces old fuse boxes, sorts out overloaded boards and fits modern safety switches that protect your property from electrical faults, shocks and fire hazards.
We work across older Melbourne homes and busy commercial sites where the switchboards just weren’t built for what people are running these days with modern appliances, lighting and technology.
Whether it’s swapping out ceramic fuses or upgrading to a full three-phase system, we fix what’s actually causing the problem, not just the symptom. Every job is done by fully licensed electricians and built to meet current Australian Standards, so your property gets safe, reliable power that holds up for years to come.
Old ceramic or rewirable fuses, no safety switches, and switchboards that no longer meet modern standards.
Circuits that keep tripping, flickering lights, power dropouts and switchboards struggling under everyday loads.
Burn marks, buzzing sounds, melted components and overloaded boards that put your home or business at serious risk.

Every job is done by fully licensed electricians and built to meet current Australian Standards, so your property gets safe, reliable power that holds up for years to come.
Every property has different switchboard needs, whether it’s an ageing fuse box, a faulty breaker, or a complete upgrade for a new build. MV Switchboard Upgrades delivers safe, compliant switchboard solutions designed to protect your property and support modern power demands with confidence.
Plenty of older Melbourne homes and businesses are still running on switchboards that just can’t handle what we throw at them these days. We swap out those outdated boards for modern, code-compliant systems that bring your safety, capacity and reliability up to par with what they should be.
A dodgy switchboard doesn’t always mean you need the whole thing replaced. We do quick, reliable repairs for common stuff like tripping breakers, burnt components, blown fuses and faulty safety switches. It gets your power sorted without costing you a full replacement.
When a board is too far gone, we rip out the old one, put in a brand new unit with updated safety switches and surge protection, and test the lot before we leave. If your switchboard is significantly outdated or unsafe, upgrading it is the best option for ensuring your peace of mind.
Here are some of the most common questions Melbourne homeowners and businesses ask us.
The usual giveaways are circuit breakers that keep tripping, flickering lights, burn marks or a burning smell around your switchboard, old ceramic or rewirable fuses, and no safety switches at all. If your home is 20+ years old or your power can’t keep up, it needs to be checked.
Most switchboard upgrades take somewhere between 4 and 8 hours depending on the size of the property and how complex the job is. For a standard residential upgrade, we can usually have you back up and running the same day. Bigger jobs or three-phase setups can take a bit longer, but we’ll always let you know what to expect before we start.
Every job is a bit different, so the cost depends on the status of your current board, the size of your property, and whether you need extra wiring or safety switches. We do free, upfront quotes with no hidden fees so you know exactly what you’re up for before we touch anything.
A safety switch, or RCD, cuts the power straight away when it picks up an electrical fault. That’s what stops shocks, fires and serious injuries. Current Australian Standards require them on all power and lighting circuits, so if your board doesn’t have them, it’s well worth getting that sorted.
Yes, we do need to turn the power off while we’re working on the upgrade. It’s usually only out for a few hours, though. We work as quickly as we can to keep the disruption to a minimum, and we’ll always let you know when to expect everything back on.
Ceramic fuses aren’t dangerous, but they’re outdated and don’t protect like modern safety switches. They can’t detect the kind of faults that cause shocks or fires, which is why most Melbourne homes are better off upgrading to a modern board with RCDs fitted.
Our expert team delivers safe, reliable and compliant switchboard work on every job, from quick repairs to full replacements. Trust us for honest advice and quality results you can count on.
