Newly installed switchboard with labelled RCBO safety switches being tested by a Sydney electrician

Switchboards & power restoration — licensed in-house, Sydney wide.

What's covered

Everything in scope, named up front.

A switchboard upgrade replaces old ceramic fuses or an undersized board with a compliant board carrying RCBO safety switches, correct labelling and capacity for the load you actually run. Most Sydney homes are done in a day, on a fixed price agreed before we start. Mega Power Services is a Level 2 ASP contractor, so a mains or metering upgrade in the same job is handled by the same crew.

  • Ceramic fuse replacement

    Rewireable fuses swapped for modern circuit breakers with proper fault discrimination.

  • RCD safety switches

    Compliant RCBO protection on every circuit — not just the two the old rules required.

  • Single to 3-phase

    Capacity for ducted air, induction cooking, EV charging and workshop equipment.

  • EV charger ready

    Board sized and a dedicated circuit provisioned so the charger install is straightforward later.

  • Board relocation

    Meter box and board moved and re-terminated when a renovation demands it.

  • Full circuit testing

    Every circuit tested, labelled and documented, with the certificate emailed to you.

Consumer protection

This upgrade itself sits outside the New Energy Tech Consumer Code — the Code covers solar, battery and EV charging work, which we're an approved signatory for. If your board is being upgraded to run a charger or a battery, that part of the job is done to Code standards.

Our price promise

Best price guaranteed.

You'll get one fixed number before a tool comes out of the van. If you already hold a like-for-like written quote from another licensed Sydney electrician, we'll beat it — or tell you honestly why theirs is cheaper, which is usually scope they've left out.

Fixed quote, in writing

One number, approved by you before work starts. Nothing lands on the invoice that wasn't on the quote.

We'll beat a like-for-like quote

Same scope, same licences, same warranty. Send the written quote through and we'll better it.

No hidden extras

If we find something behind the wall, you approve the price before we touch it.

Compliance included

RCD protection, testing and your Certificate of Compliance are inside the quoted price.

Fox ESS battery retrofit to existing solar

"Ajen (electrician) installed a Fox ESS battery and joined it with the existing solar panel system. This was not an easy installation, but he managed all the complexities. At the end the system worked as expected. He is also very pleasant to work with, punctual and professional."
