FAQ
Common Questions
Yes. Many Kerikeri lifestyle blocks have sub-mains running to sheds, pumps, and workshops. We can upgrade the main switchboard and re-do sub-board protection in the same visit.
Power is off for 4–6 hours on the changeover day. We work as cleanly and quickly as possible and leave everything labelled and tidy.
Yes — we'll size the new board with EV charging in mind, even if you don't have a charger yet. Adding one later is then a straightforward circuit add-on, not another full board change.
Yes — we manage any required notifications to your lines company as part of the job.
If we find aged or damaged tails or wiring during the upgrade, we'll stop and explain what we've found, what it'll cost to fix, and let you decide before we proceed. No surprise invoices.
