What are some things I need to be aware of before going ahead with a full switchboard upgrade?

Electricians are only allowed to install the switchboard - they do not however have the authority to re-energise the board, meaning the mains must remain completely disconnected before an LEI (licensed electrical inspector) inspects the board - only they have the authority to re-energise and reconnect the main. In this case a prescribed certificate of electrical safety is issued.
