Ceramic or rewireable fuses are still installed.
There is inadequate RCD or safety-switch protection.
Circuits trip frequently without an obvious cause.
Lights flicker or dim when appliances start.
The switchboard is warm, buzzing, damaged or smells burnt.
There is no room for additional circuits.
Circuit labels are missing or inaccurate.
You are adding an EV charger, air conditioner, induction cooktop or major renovation.
An inspection has identified earthing, enclosure or protection defects.
The existing board, supply, protection, earthing and connected loads are reviewed before the final scope is confirmed.
Old fuse carriers and unsuitable protection devices are removed as required.
Circuit breakers, RCDs or RCBOs are installed according to the agreed design and applicable requirements.
Circuits are arranged and labelled clearly to support safer use and future maintenance.
Earthing, damaged enclosures, unsafe connections or other defects may be corrected where identified and included in the scope.
The completed work is tested and relevant compliance documentation is provided where required.
A switchboard is the control and protection point for the property’s electrical system. Correctly selected protective devices help reduce electric-shock and fire risk, isolate faults and make the system easier to understand and maintain.
An upgrade can also create a clearer path for future electrical additions. However, simply replacing the board does not increase the property supply by itself. Larger loads may still require assessment of the incoming supply, meter arrangement or network requirements.
Tell Volt Hub about any planned EV charger, air conditioning, induction cooking, solar, battery, pool equipment, workshop or renovation work. This allows the switchboard layout and available capacity to be considered as part of the upgrade.
