Frequently asked questions

Quick answers for your electrical needs

Do you service both residential and commercial jobs?

Yes. We handle everything from residential switchboard upgrades and home EV charger installations to commercial reactive maintenance and large-scale EV infrastructure projects for strata buildings and government clients in Newcastle, Central Coast and nearby areas.

Do I need a switchboard upgrade before installing an EV charger or solar?

In most cases, yes — especially for commercial or multi-unit properties. Your existing switchboard may not have the capacity to support the additional load, and if it doesn't meet current NSW safety standards (RCBO switches on all circuits), we'll need to address that first. We'll tell you exactly what's needed in the quote.

Can you install EV chargers for strata buildings and
commercial car parks?

Absolutely. We specialise in large-scale commercial EV charger rollouts in Newcastle and Central Coast, including smart load management systems, new switchboard installation, and cable tray setup — built to handle multiple vehicles charging simultaneously without overloading your building's electrical supply.

What's the difference between a safety switch and a circuit breaker?

A circuit breaker protects your wiring from overload. A safety switch (RCD or RCBO) protects you from electrocution by detecting earth leakage. NSW regulations, including homes in Newcastle and Central Coast, require safety switches on all circuits in modern switchboards — if your board doesn't have them, it's time for an upgrade.

What brands of EV chargers do you install?

We install a range of commercial and residential EV chargers including Tesla Wall Connectors, Chargefox, Autel, and JetCharge systems. We're a JetCharge-partnered installer for residential EV projects and have delivered Chargefox infrastructure at government scale.

What services do you provide?

We handle EV chargers, fitouts, switchboards, battery storage, and maintenance for both residential and commercial clients in Newcastle and Central Coast.
