When Should a Fuse Board Be Checked?
An older fuse board doesn't automatically mean it needs replacing, but there are situations where having the installation inspected and discussing an upgrade makes sense.
Older Fuse Carriers
Older boards using traditional fuse carriers may not provide the same type of protection available in a modern installation.
Limited RCD Protection
Older installations may have limited or outdated residual current protection compared with newer arrangements.
Frequent Tripping
Repeated tripping should be investigated to determine whether there is a circuit fault, equipment issue or another cause.
Electrical Alterations
Extensions, renovations and significant electrical alterations can be a good time to review the existing distribution board.
Signs of Damage
Heat damage, deterioration, loose components or other visible defects should be assessed by an electrician.
Unsure About Your Board?
If you don't know whether your existing fuse board is suitable, it can be inspected before deciding whether an upgrade is needed.
More Than Simply Changing the Board
A fuse board upgrade involves working with the existing electrical installation, so the condition of the circuits and protective arrangements needs to be considered as part of the job.
Modern Protection
A new distribution board can provide modern circuit protection and a clearer, more organised arrangement for the electrical circuits within the property.
Inspection & Testing
The relevant electrical installation is inspected and tested so that existing faults or defects can be identified rather than simply being hidden behind a new board.

Every property is different, so the existing installation is considered before determining exactly what work is required.
