Switchboard Upgrades Logan
Do You Need a Switchboard Upgrade? Here's What Logan Homeowners Should Know

When was the last time you checked your switchboard? For many Logan homeowners, the answer is “never.” But your switchboard is the heart of your home’s electrical system — and if it’s old, outdated, or overloaded, it could be putting your safety at risk.
At Adapt Energy Solutions, we help homeowners across Logan and Brisbane’s southside stay safe and compliant with fast, affordable switchboard upgrades.
Why an Old Switchboard is a Safety Risk
Older switchboards (especially those with ceramic fuses) weren’t designed for today’s modern power loads. With more appliances, devices, and air conditioners running in every home, these older systems can struggle to keep up — increasing the risk of:
Electrical fires
Tripped circuits and power outages
Electric shocks
Appliances being damaged by surges
If you’re still relying on an outdated switchboard, a licensed electrician in Logan can inspect and upgrade your system to meet current safety standards.
Signs You May Need a Switchboard Upgrade
Not sure if it’s time to upgrade? Here are the most common warning signs:
Flickering lights or frequent tripping
Burning smells near the fuse box
Crackling or buzzing sounds from the switchboard
Ceramic fuses instead of modern safety switches
Power points or lights not working in certain areas
If you’re noticing any of these signs, book an inspection with an emergency electrician in Logan right away. Don’t wait until something goes wrong.
What’s Involved in a Switchboard Upgrade?
A modern switchboard upgrade includes:
Replacing outdated fuses with RCD safety switches
Installing circuit breakers to protect each circuit
Ensuring your system is compliant with current AS/NZS 3000 standards
Labelling each circuit for easier fault detection
Optional surge protection for high-end electronics
All work should be carried out by a licensed, insured Logan electrician — never DIY.
