Electrical Switchboard Upgrade Brisbane | Domestic

Professional electrical switchboard upgrade

Older buildings and homes that have fuse type switchboards pose a much higher risk of electrical fires occurring and offer very limited protection against the risk of possible electric shocks. All modern switchboard installations should have mandatory safety switches installed, under Queensland law. All Purpose Trade Solutions can carry out switchboard upgrades in your Brisbane home or business.

Do you need a switchboard update?

This is dependent entirely on what type of switchboard your have. Fuse type switchboards were the average switchboard installed in older houses. These older style of switchboard are becoming a huge fire risk as the average house electrical consumption was a lot less than to what it is now. With the introduction of air conditioners, TVs, computers, and other modern appliances your home you may be using a lot more power than what your switchboard can handle.

These older switchboards are often not fitted with safety switches either, which can be dangerous in the case of an electrical fault.

Upgrade from incoming mains power

Incoming mains are the cables that run from the point of entry to your house to the switchboard.

Old houses usually have 6 mm incoming mains (rated to approx. 40amps).
Medium size new houses have 10 mm incoming mains (rated to approx. 63amps).
Larger houses have 16 mm incoming mains {rated to approx. 80amps).

Frequently Asked Questions about electrician

How come my safety switch won't turn back on?

With the changes in legislation making it compulsory for most (if not all) homes across Queensland to have at least one safety switch fitted, a very common question we get asked is 'why can't I reset my safety switch?'

How Often do Emergency Lights Require Testing?

Emergency lights are essential for any commercial and high-rise apartment buildings. The lights get activated in the event of a fire, blackout or any other emergency. Emergency lights help people evacuate the building and keeping them in good working condition is mandatory.

How to reset a safety switch

When it comes to electrical safety, safety switches are one of the most commonly used devices. They offer an instant cut-off mechanism should they detect an electrical fault in the circuitry, and are designed to protect against electric shock and electrical burns.
