Many older homes in Canberra, Queanbeyan and surrounding districts still have an original, outdated electrical switchboard with porcelain fuses. These electrical switchboards do not meet Australian Standards and could be dangerous. Fuses are designed as a safety feature, but old or faulty fuses can lead to electrical faults and fire.
We specialise in electrical safety, ensuring your switchboard meets all current applicable safety standards.
Your switchboard most likely needs attention if –
- You have a fuse that keeps tripping out resulting in loss of power to part or all of your property. This is a situation that should be given your urgent attention.
- Your house is getting on in years. Technology has advanced significantly in the last 20 years and the protective systems and applicable wiring standards of today are far superior and all designed with your safety in mind.
- It is exposed to the weather. The harsh year round conditions in our location mean that systems can deteriorate if not protected or maintained.
- Over the years additions and alterations to your property have resulted in a mish mash of wiring which is untidy and could become unsafe. This is probably not apparent looking at the front of your switchboard.
Contact us today for an inspection and only if required will we propose a solution.
