Switchboard Upgrades And Safety Switch Installation
Up to date switchboards fitted with safety switches are paramount in keeping your family and property safe.
Having a compliant switchboard fitted with safety switches is vital in reducing the potential risk of electrocution and electrical fires.
With safety switches installed, dodgy appliances, damaged leads or electrical fittings will cause the safety switches to trip and cut power off to that circuit which can be life saving.
Your lights and power may seem fine but, if your circuits are on ceramic/porcelain fuses or circuit breakers instead of safety switches you are not nearly as safe if something were to go wrong. Call 0478 785 652 or click "Book Now!" below to see if a switchboard upgrade is necessary for your home.

Safety Switch Installation
Safety switches (RCD or RCBO) are designed to protect people, livestock and property from electrocution as well as electrical fires and will trip a circuit within 30 milliseconds of fault detection. They are a means of circuit isolation in the event of a fault which can be caused by dodgy appliances, degraded or damaged cabling, broken electrical fittings and more!
Older homes fitted with porcelain fuses take longer to blow in the event of a short circuit and do not detect any faults going through your earthing system. For example if you were to come in to contact with a live cable or electrical components the fuse will not trip until it eventually overloads the circuit, which may not even happen.
With increased technology and appliances the power demands increase, at times this means that your current electrical system cannot keep up and you find that circuits are tripping frequently or sometimes fuses being blown.
