                                    Switchboard Upgrades, Safety Switches & Surge Protection
Your switchboard is the heart of your electrical system — it controls the flow of power and keeps your home or business safe.
At Copper Bull Electrical Services, we specialise in modern switchboard upgrades, safety switch installations (RCD/RCBO), and surge protection systems to give you safety, reliability, and peace of mind.
Why Upgrade Your Switchboard?
Older switchboards often can’t handle today’s power demands. Many still use ceramic fuses and lack modern safety switches, leaving your property at risk of:
- Short circuits and electrical fires
 - Electric shocks
 - Power overloads or appliance damage
 
Our licensed electricians inspect your system, identify faults or outdated components, and upgrade everything to meet current Queensland electrical standards.
Protect Your Home & Equipment Today
Safety Switches (RCD & RCBO Protection)
Upgrading your switchboard isn’t just about adding new breakers — it’s about protecting lives and property.
We install:
- RCDs (Residual Current Devices) – which automatically cut power when a fault is detected, preventing electric shock.
 - RCBOs (Residual Current Breakers with Overcurrent protection) – offering even greater protection by guarding against both leakage and overloads.
 
Every installation is individually tested, labelled, and certified for future maintenance and compliance.
Surge Protection You Can Rely On
A sudden power surge — from lightning, grid fluctuations, or faulty appliances — can destroy electronics and shorten equipment life.
Our surge protection systems stop these voltage spikes before they reach your devices, keeping your home and business powered safely year-round.
Professional, Organised & Future-Ready
Every Copper Bull upgrade includes:
- Load balancing and rewiring
 - Clean switchboard organisation and labelling
 - Capacity upgrades for renovations and extensions
 - Reconfiguration of main supply connections
 
We use only tested, high-quality components and provide full documentation and certification for every project.
Our Promise: Safety Is Never Optional
At Copper Bull, electrical safety is more than a feature — it’s our foundation.
Whether you’re protecting your family, your business, or your investment, we make sure your power system is safe, compliant, and built to last.
