Switchboards are the centrepieces of every electrical system in buildings. When you flip a light switch or turn on an appliance, the switchboard sends the electricity to where it needs to go. Having a well-functioning switchboard is crucial; not only would breakdown make everything grind to a halt, there could be disastrous consequences if there are safety issues.
ASSA employs a team of knowledgeable Level 2 electricians that have the proper experience and credentials, and perform precise and high-quality electrical service work. All of our work comes with a quality assurance guarantee, and we stand behind that firmly. ASSA should be your first choice for all things related to switchboard upgrades in Sydney and Canberra.
Here are five things that can make your electrical switchboard operate safely:
Regular inspections and maintenance of your switchboard can keep it healthy and functional for a long time. Getting your switchboard inspected once a year is a good idea.
Circuit breakers trip when too much current is being drawn through the system, usually when too many appliances are in use at the same time. This prevents overloading, which could cause damage to wires or even fires.
Residual Current Devices (RCDs), more commonly just called safety switches, protect you from electric shocks by tripping when an electric leak is detected, shutting off the power supply.
A circuit that sees prolonged use may sometimes cause electric arcing, which is known to melt metal and start fires. AFPD puts a stop to this phenomenon.
Lightning strikes and other random events can sometimes cause abnormal jumps in the flow of electricity, known as a “surge”. These high voltage surges can damage appliances and even cause fires if nothing mitigates them. A surge protector protects your electrical system from these events.

If you are experiencing flickering lights, tripped circuit breakers, or frequent power outages, it may be time to consider a switchboard upgrade. Additionally, if your switchboard is outdated and unable to handle the electrical load required by modern appliances and technology, a switchboard upgrade may be necessary.
On average, a complete switchboard upgrade should take about four hours. Rest assured that our technicians work as quickly as possible on any job; also, we charge by the job, not the hour!
Any switchboard older than 25 years should be replaced as soon as possible. If there is no date label on the switchboard, chances are that it is quite old already and should be replaced.
