What we do in Wacol
Houses built in Wacol after the war usually started with a small switchboard and a handful of circuits. Upgrading the switchboard with RCD safety switches is often the first step before adding new circuits. Built-in lower levels need their own lighting, power points and interconnected smoke alarms.
Most Wacol bookings are practical: a circuit that keeps tripping, a room that needs more power points or lighting that needs replacing.

Questions we hear in Wacol
Can you install an EV charger at my Wacol home?
Yes. We check your switchboard and supply capacity, run a dedicated circuit and mount the charger where it suits your parking.
How do I know if my Wacol switchboard is out of date?
Rewireable fuses, missing safety switches and frequent tripping are the main signs. We check the board and talk through what an upgrade involves.
Can you add power points in an older Wacol home?
Yes. We check the existing circuit first, then add points where needed, upgrading protection if the circuit isn’t suitable.
