Many Little Mountain homes built in the late 1990s and 2000s have outdated circuit protection — or none at all on lighting. We upgrade switchboards, install individual RCDs per circuit, and future-proof your home for your growing family.
From safety switch upgrades to new circuits and appliance installs — we cover it all for Little Mountain homeowners.
Upgrade to modern safety switches that comply with Queensland regulations and protect your family.
One RCD per circuit — so a trip never blacks out large sections of your home at once.
Separate circuits for ovens, dishwashers, EV chargers, and air conditioners to prevent overloads.
Replace old fuse boards with modern circuit breakers and RCDs. Safer, smarter, future-proofed.

Little Mountain is a rapidly growing family suburb. Many homes built in the late 1990s and 2000s still have electrical systems that were considered acceptable then — but fall short of today's safety standards.
Many Little Mountain homes have safety switches only on power circuits — leaving lighting circuits completely unprotected. A fault on an unprotected lighting circuit can cause electrocution with no safety switch to trip and interrupt the current. Queensland now recommends RCDs on all circuits, and requirements continue to tighten. If your switchboard only protects power points, your family is at risk.
Older switchboards were often wired with a single RCD protecting multiple circuits at once. If that one safety switch trips — whether from a genuine fault or nuisance tripping — large sections of your home lose power simultaneously. Lights, fridge, and essential appliances all go off together. Individual RCDs per circuit is the modern standard: one circuit trips, the rest keep running. We retrofit your existing switchboard or replace it entirely.
Pip is a licensed Queensland electrician based on the Sunshine Coast. A familiar face in Little Mountain — you might spot the van around the neighbourhood.
Little Mountain is a community I genuinely care about. I've been working in this suburb for years, and I understand the kinds of homes here — built in the late 1990s and 2000s, often with original switchboards that haven't been updated since.
Most families don't know their lighting circuits have no safety switch protection. That's not a criticism — it's just something that was never explained to them. My job is to explain it clearly, show you exactly what's in your switchboard, and give you options that fit your budget.
I work alone, so when you call Pip Electrics, you get Pip. No subcontractors, no surprises. I hold a current Queensland Electrical Contractor Licence and am a NECA member. Every job is done to code, every time.
