Frequently asked questions

Why is upgrading my switchboard important?

Older homes often have outdated fuse boxes or switchboards that are not equipped to handle the power demands of modern appliances. Upgrading your switchboard to include modern circuit breakers and safety switches (RCDs) is a critical safety measure that protects your family from electric shock and reduces the risk of electrical fires.

What should I do if my power or safety switch keeps tripping?

If a safety switch trips, it has likely detected a fault, which could be from a faulty appliance or a wiring issue. Try unplugging all appliances on that circuit and resetting the switch. If it trips again immediately, or if you cannot identify the cause, call a licensed electrician. Do not ignore a frequently tripping switch, as it indicates an underlying electrical problem.

How often should I test my smoke alarms?

You should test your smoke alarms monthly by pressing the 'test' button. All alarms should be cleaned with a vacuum cleaner at least every six months to remove dust. In compliance with Australian standards, smoke alarms must be replaced every 10 years from their date of manufacture.
