The Mitchell family's home still had the original 1970s ceramic fuse box. Every time they used the kettle and toaster together, the fuse would blow. More concerning, there were no safety switches (RCDs) to protect the family from electrical shock.
We replaced the entire switchboard with a modern unit featuring individual circuit breakers and RCDs for all circuits. The new board has room for future additions like EV charging or solar panels. We also labeled every circuit clearly so the family knows exactly what each switch controls.
The family can now use all their appliances without worry. Mrs. Mitchell said the peace of mind knowing her children are protected by modern safety switches is priceless. They've also noticed their insurance company was pleased with the upgrade.
Replacing a live switchboard while minimizing power outage time for the family working from home.
We coordinated the work during school hours and planned the installation meticulously to reduce downtime to under 3 hours.
