Switchboards

Switchboards, also known as fuse boxes, distribute the electricity throughout your home or office. Switchboards control the flow of electricity to your entire property and if there’s a fault or overload, a switchboard will operate its safety mechanism. This will cut the power for safety and the devices connected to your circuits will no longer function until the fault is rectified and power restored.

It is obvious that Switchboards are the main controller of your electrical system and vital for electricity within your home or office, therefore, it’s imperative that you have a quality, reliable switchboard installed, to provide you with ongoing electricity without issues and safety switches for total peace of mind.

Your switchboard is the centre of your electrical system in your home, if it doesn’t work – nothing works! If your switchboard stops working, usually you’ll need a swift emergency response to repair or replace it to ensure all of your appliances work, such as your fridge. Our professional electricians will arrive to your home and office and inspect your switchboard, test and advise you the best way to go, whether it will be to repair your current switchboard or replace it with a brand-new modern switchboard for adequate safety for you and your family.

Are your fuses blowing regularly? Do your lights stop working?  You have most likely blown a fuse or the circuit breakers have activated. Your switchboard has done this for a specific reason, most likely due to a surge, fault or an overload in power that can cause the circuit to overheat.

Modern switchboards tend to use circuit breakers, that have small switches on them which you can flick back on after a fault. Older switchboards use ceramic based fuses that actually blow up & fuse out (hence the name).

Whether you’re using a modern or older switchboard, circuit protection is an integral part of the switchboard. They protect your property from fire risk, as well as safety for your family.

Typically, if you have an older style switchboard system, it may be worth the investment into a new, modern and safer system. Many older style switchboards have old ceramic style fuses which are dangerous, outdated & now illegal.

You may find that your fuses are constantly blowing, especially when you’re running simultaneous equipment. This can be detected and rectified by our licensed electricians.

Our Customers

Robert

Excellent service. We had a difficult situation and was responded to promptly. Great communication and the team had to work in difficult weather conditions to restore our power. We highly recommend ARC electrical.

Heather

ARC are a very reliable company. They arrived when they said they would, they documented all the work that needed to be done and took photos and then sent me a quote when they said they would. The team were brilliant and professional in their work as well as advising us of outdated smoke alarms we didn’t know needed replacing (the alarm themselves had expired and we didn't know as we had just purchased the house) so they replaced them on the spot for us also. Don’t just call them for a repair u can call them if u have an electrical issue and are not sure what needs to be done as they are great in finding solutions as well.

Diane

If you want exceptional standards, fantastic communication and people who are polite and respectful then Adam and he's Off Sider are the people you want. They arrived when they said they would, they called when they said they would, they did the job and more for the quoted price - no surprises. As a single female (I know - it shouldn't matter but we know it does), I rely trades people and hope I get quality ones. I struck gold finding ARC. I most certainly use them again and highly recommend them for sure! Nice work guys.

John
