Old fusebox putting your family at risk? Upgrade to a modern RCBO switchboard. Individual circuit protection (not shared RCDs), same-day installation, AS/NZS 3000 compliant, owner-operated by licensed electrician Marcus.
Most electricians install basic RCD switchboards with 2-4 shared safety switches protecting multiple circuits. Problem? One faulty appliance trips the whole house. Nightmare trying to find what caused it.
Amped Up installs Hager RCBO switchboards as standard. Every circuit gets its own Hager RCBO (combined safety switch + circuit breaker). Fault on the fridge circuit? Only the fridge trips. Everything else stays on.
Hager RCBOs are a premium upgrade over basic RCDs. You're getting German-engineered components, individual circuit protection, easier fault diagnosis, and no more "which appliance is tripping the house?" guessing games. Worth it.
Every installation is owner-operated by Marcus. Clean Hager RCBO boards, neat cable management, compliant installations. Here's what quality switchboard work looks like:
Why this matters: Neat cable management isn't just cosmetic—it's safety, compliance, and makes future work easier. This is what you get when the business owner does every install personally (not subcontracted crews).
Real install with Fluke 1674 fc resistance testing — no actors, no stock footage.
1. Quote (same day): Send photos of your current switchboard, I'll quote within 2 hours.
2. Schedule (same week): Most upgrades scheduled within 5 days.
3. Installation (4-6 hours): Power restored same day. Minimal downtime.
4. Certificate: AS/NZS compliance certificate provided on completion.
I personally handle every switchboard upgrade from quote to completion. No subcontractors, no apprentices unsupervised. When you call, you speak to me. When I arrive, it's me doing the work.

"Called Marcus from Amped Up Electrical Adelaide during the heavy rain - had power issues at my place in Athelstone and needed someone fast. He picked up straight away and came out the same day. Sorted out the switchboard with new RCBOs, walked me through what he was doing, and now everything's running properly again. Honest pricing, no muck around. Highly recommend if you're in Adelaide and need an electrician who actually turns up."
"I called Amped Up on a morning Sunday. Our power was out. … The new isolator was larger than the old one … so Marcus reconfigure the board. At all times Marcus was extremely polite, very informative, stepped out everything that needed to be done and gained our approval before completing the work. I'm in my late 50s and I haven't experienced good old fashion service like this in a long time."

If you have old ceramic fuses or rewireable fuses, YES. These don't provide RCD protection and are not compliant with current standards. If you're renovating, adding solar/EV charger, or selling, upgrade is often required. We install Hager RCBO switchboards as standard (not basic shared RCDs).
No. Power is off for 1-2 hours during the switchover. Total job time is 4-6 hours, but most of that is wiring/setup with power on. I schedule around your needs (work from home, kids at home, etc.).
