Authorised switchboard relocation specialists across Sydney
Done Right Electrical delivers compliant switchboard and meter box relocations for residential renovations, extensions and architectural builds.
Moving an existing switchboard requires Level 2 accreditation because it directly involves incoming service mains, network metering and the point of common coupling. Whether your current meter box is situated inside a bedroom, blocks a new carport or encroaches on swimming pool safety clearance zones, we handle the entire relocation process. As authorised Level 2 electricians, we extend underground conduits, relocate overhead riser brackets, extend sub-circuits and certify the installation with your distributor. Operated by DONE RIGHT ELECTRICAL SERVICES PTY LTD (ABN 32 675 365 867).
