Signs You Need An Upgrade
If you're unsure whether your switchboard needs an upgrade, here are some common signs that indicate it's time for a change:
Frequent Circuit Breaker Trips
If your circuit breakers trip often, it may be a sign that your switchboard is overloaded or not functioning properly. This can happen when the system can’t handle the power demands of modern appliances.
Flickering or Dimming Lights
Lights that flicker or dim unexpectedly could indicate faulty wiring or an outdated switchboard struggling to manage your electrical load. This is often a safety concern and should be addressed promptly.
Overheating or Burn Marks
If you notice that your switchboard is overheating or there are burn marks around the switches, this is a serious safety risk. Overheating can lead to fires and indicates that your switchboard is no longer working as it should.
Outdated Ceramic Fuses
Add your pricing strategy. Be sure to include important details like value, length of service, and why it’s unique.
No RCDs (Safety Switches)
RCDs (Residual Current Devices) are essential for protecting you against electric shocks. If your switchboard doesn’t have RCDs, it’s time for an upgrade to maintain safety and comply with current electrical regulations.
