Common Switchboard Issues We Fix
Old ceramic fuses
Slow to clear faults and prone to overheating — upgrade to modern breakers.
No safety switches (RCDs)
RCDs are mandatory in QLD to reduce shock risk. We bring every circuit up to standard.
Overloaded circuits
Frequent tripping or hot breakers indicate load issues. We rebalance and add dedicated circuits.
Asbestos backing boards
Older boards may contain asbestos. We handle this safely and compliantly.
Messy, unlabelled wiring
We reorganise, secure and label every circuit for easier maintenance.
