Don't ignore these warning signs — an outdated switchboard is one of the leading causes of electrical fires in Australian homes.
The biggest red flag. Ceramic fuses are a 1960s technology that can't protect against modern electrical loads and are a fire risk.
Frequent tripping means your circuits are overloaded or there's a fault. Your board may need more circuits or a full upgrade.
RCDs protect you from electric shock. NSW regulations require them on all circuits — older homes often have none or only one.
Flickering lights when you turn on appliances points to a struggling switchboard or faulty wiring that needs professional attention.
Any burning smell from your switchboard is an emergency. Turn off your mains and call us immediately — do not delay.
EV chargers require a dedicated 32A circuit. Older boards often can't handle this load safely without an upgrade.
Homes built before 2000 often have undersized switchboards not designed for today's electrical demands. Time for a check.
Many NSW insurers now require RCD protection on all circuits. An outdated board can void your policy in the event of a fire.
