Switchboards Designed and Built In-House
Main switchboards and distribution boards designed and built in our own workshop at Mulgrave NSW, factory tested and delivered with their test sheets.
We are a switchboard manufacturer as well as the installing contractor: we design and build our own switchboards at Mulgrave NSW, in Western Sydney, so the long-lead item on most of our projects runs on our programme.
Each board is designed to suit the job and issued for approval as a general arrangement, internal layout and single-line diagram. We build it on a modular enclosure system, with design verification to AS/NZS 61439 held by the system manufacturer, and fit ABB and Schneider switchgear. Every board is routine verified, factory tested and delivered with its test sheets.
Boards We Have Built
Boards built for our own projects include the 16-module main switchboard for PF Formation's CDE wash plant, the Unitas Business Park site switchboards, the Bowral main switchboard and distribution boards, and two site main switchboards at Redbank, North Richmond. We also built the Greenside main switchboard, two main switchboards and two main distribution boards at Uniting Kamilaroi, the Blacktown Medical Specialist Centre main switchboard, the Maroota processing shed main switchboard and six distribution boards for Bosch Rexroth at Marsden Park.

Do you manufacture switchboards yourselves?
Yes. Vorick Group designs and builds main switchboards and distribution boards in its own workshop at Unit 2, 7 Precision Place, Mulgrave NSW. Each board is designed to suit the job, factory tested and delivered with its test sheets.
Can I order a switchboard supply only, without the installation?
Yes. As well as building the boards for our own projects, we build switchboards supply only for building owners, facility managers and industrial clients. Send the drawings or specification through the request form on our contact page, email them to [email protected], or call (02) 7233 1895.
How long does a main switchboard take to build?
On recent boards, shop drawings in under two weeks and the board built in three to four weeks.
What switchboard ratings do you build?
Main switchboards to 2,500 A with fault ratings to 36 kA, Forms 2b to 4a, IP54 indoors and IP56 outdoors, with ABB and Schneider switchgear on a modular enclosure system.
Are your switchboards verified to AS/NZS 61439?
Each board is built on a modular enclosure system whose design verification to AS/NZS 61439 is held by the system manufacturer. We routine-verify every board we assemble and issue its factory test sheets.
Do you build switchboards with an automatic transfer switch?
Yes. We design and build main switchboards with a standby generator section and an automatic transfer switch, which changes the supply over when the mains fail and back when they return.
What drawings do we get for approval?
A general arrangement, an internal layout and a single-line diagram for each board, issued for approval before the board is built.
What kinds of switchboards do you build?
Main switchboards, CT-metered boards, EV distribution boards, distribution boards, meter panels and tee-off boxes, with generator and solar connection sections, changeover switches and surge protection where the job needs them.
