What is a switchboard upgrade?
A switchboard upgrade involves replacing your old fuse box with a modern circuit breaker panel. This essential modification provides crucial safety features like residual current devices (RCDs) that instantly shut off power in the event of a fault, protecting you from electric shocks.
Upgraded switchboards also offer better circuit protection, preventing overloads and reducing the risk of electrical fires. With a new switchboard, you'll enjoy the increased capacity to handle modern appliances, improved energy efficiency and peace of mind knowing your home is electrically safe.
