Zak and Ryan did a amazing job. Even with the obstacles of a double story home with a internal switch board they persevered in the heat and got the job done. Thanks guys we realy appreciate your work and polite attitude.

Stephen S · Switchboard

Absolutely fantastic service and work done! The boys were super accommodating, answered any questions I had without a problem, left everything neat and tidy and overall did an amazing job installing our battery and inverter. Cannot recommend enough.

Isaac Giblett · Battery + inverter

Excellent service! The team arrived on time and completed the installation efficiently and up to scratch. Everything was done neatly, with great attention to detail. Ryan and Jack are top blokes and easy to deal with. Highly recommended!

LOCAL CONDITIONS

Mains upgrades in Croydon, in practice

Croydon carries the postcode 3136 figures, which also take in Croydon Hills, Croydon North and Croydon South: 5487 small-scale solar installations since 2001. Solar and storage change what a house supply has to do, and AusNet Services, the distributor here, sets export limits and approves any increase in capacity, so those requests go in before a larger inverter or a battery is installed.

Finished switchboard upgrade with RCBOs on every circuit

Croydon became part of Melbourne's postwar growth along its main roads and railway line, and a lot of the housing dates from that period. Brick veneers and weatherboards of that era were typically given single-phase mains and a main switch sized for gas heating and gas cooking. Multinet's network reaches streets in Croydon, and owners moving those appliances to electric are adding load that the original cable never expected. At the 2021 Census, 26.4% of homes were rented, and for those we coordinate approval with the landlord or agent and the outage time with the tenant. We confirm the demand first, then size the mains, lodge the request and book the meter change.
