Frequently Asked Questions
How do I know if my switchboard needs upgrading?
If your switchboard still uses ceramic fuses or lacks safety switches, it’s likely due for an upgrade. Signs include frequent power tripping, flickering lights, or appliances losing power unexpectedly. These symptoms often indicate that your system is struggling to handle modern electrical loads, making an upgrade essential for both safety and compliance with Australian Standards.
What’s the difference between fuses and circuit breakers?
Fuses contain a wire that melts when overloaded, cutting power to prevent damage, but they must be replaced after each fault. Circuit breakers perform the same function but can be easily reset with a switch. Circuit breakers also respond faster and more reliably to faults, which is why they’re now standard in all modern switchboards.
How often should a switchboard be inspected?
For residential properties, experts recommend having your switchboard inspected every 3–5 years. In commercial settings with higher usage, annual checks are ideal. Regular inspections identify early signs of wear, loose connections, or overloading, helping you prevent failures and extend the lifespan of your system. Any time you renovate or add new circuits, an inspection is also recommended.

Modern Switchboard Upgrades
Upgrading your switchboard is one of the most effective ways to enhance safety and reliability. Older fuse boxes often can’t support the electrical load of modern homes, leading to risks such as overheating or tripping. A switchboard upgrade replaces outdated fuses with circuit breakers and RCD safety switches, offering faster fault detection and protection. It also ensures compliance with current Australian Standards, giving you long-term peace of mind.
Whether you’ve added new appliances, solar panels, or an EV charger, an upgraded system ensures steady, safe power flow. For professional switchboard upgrades that prioritise safety, contact FAW Electrical today.
