Switchboard Upgrades Cairns

Your switchboard is akin to your home’s heart. It is where the electrical wiring from the mains originates from and is responsible for powering your entire home via the various circuits throughout.

Why are Switchboard Upgrades Important?

Your switchboard – which is usually located near your meter box – will require maintenance or an upgrade as it ages. This is highly important, as this will not only prevent unnecessary blown fuses and tripping circuit breakers, but it will also ensure the safety of your family or business by preventing electrical fires caused by faults.

Upgrading to Safety Switches

If you’ve got several switches on the same board like most electrical systems, it’s best to invest in safety switches. Safety switches feature an automatic shutoff in the event they detect a fault or surge. This can protect you and your home from electrical fires, shock and potential damage to your electrical appliances and devices. They are a simple yet effective way to protect everyone in your home from electrical-related danger.

When Do I Need to Upgrade?

You’ll need to upgrade if you know you have an old or damaged switchboard. You may also need to upgrade if you’re noticing flickering lights and short-circuiting appliances that are occurring for unknown reasons. The removal of switchboards is best left to the professionals as older systems can be complex and at times covered in toxic asbestos. The professionals at Easy Cool Air are specialists in switchboard removal and can safely extract your existing system prior to installing your new one.

If you’re unsure, always call in a professional to inspect your switchboard for old rewireable fuses or overcrowded wiring. An expert will take into account the age of the board and any other factors, such as installation of any appliances that require dedicated circuits. These appliances may include hot water systems, air conditioners or pool pumps.
