Why should you upgrade your switchboard
42% of homeowners have an old switchboard in their home, unaware of the safety risks!
Houses built before 1970 are likely to have older switchboards that are not up to standards with current NZ regulations and often don’t have an RCD protection. RCD’s (Residual Current Devices) protect your house and appliances as they cut out electricity when a dangerous situation is detected.
To give you a piece of mind, an electrical inspection will for example determine if the switchboard or any cables in your house are worn or deteriorated and, therefore, a serious fire risk.
What are the benefits of upgrading your switchboard?
Lesser risk of potential fires and electrocution
Cleaner look and labelled circuits
Save money on electrical call outs
RCD shock protection devices
