Risks of not upgrading a switchboard

The dangers of an outdated switchboard are scary – fuses and old circuit breakers are responsible for many electrical fires and you may not have the necessary safety switches to protect yourself and others from electric shock.

Because of the risks involved in doing a switchboard upgrade, it is definitely not something you can DIY or for a local handyman. Not using a properly qualified and licensed electrician means you’re not covered if something does go wrong after the switchboard is upgraded.
