Switchboard upgrade options and quote checklist
Compare switchboard upgrade quotes by recording the board concern, planned loads, access and the inclusions in a licensed electrician's written scope.
Method: leave with better questions for your quote
Choose what brought you here. Each selected topic adds two relevant questions; there are no price benchmarks or hidden calculations. The assumption is that you can describe the issue without opening the board. This checklist cannot diagnose wiring or calculate a price; those depend on an electrician seeing the property. For safe handling of an electrical concern, read Queensland Electrical Safety Office guidance.
- Describe the concern and property suburb.
- List planned loads such as cooling, cooking, solar or EV equipment.
- Ask the provider to state inclusions, exclusions, coordination needs and next steps in writing.
