Why Switchboard Upgrade?
Different types of switchboards have divergent capabilities. Older fuse-type switchboards were once the norm, but they are now becoming a huge fire hazard. It is because older houses needed less electricity than what is now standard, with air conditioners and other appliances. If your home has an older style of switchboard, it may not be able to handle the amount of power you are using. Additionally, older switchboards often lack safety switches, which can be dangerous in the event of an electrical fault.
Your switchboard is like the control center of your home’s electrical system – it’s what keeps everything running smoothly and safely. But over time, even the best switchboards can start to wear out and show signs of age.
If you notice any of the following symptoms, it’s time to upgrade your switchboard in Brisbane:
• Your switchboard is in an exposed location
•You are having an old house
• Your fuse keeps tripping
• Overcrowding of fuses and circuit breakers
• Loose connections
• Absence of a safety switch or RCD
• If you have added an extension to your home or business
•You notice frequent short circuits
• Your older switchboard fail to meet the current power requirements
