Replacing an outdated switchboard removes worn components and obsolete technology that can cause malfunctions.

Safety switches and circuit breakers should be upgraded if they frequently trip, show visible damage, or if the system is over 20 years old. Outdated switches may fail to detect electrical imbalances, and older breakers might react too slowly to faults, increasing risk. Routine inspections or planned switchboard upgrades are the perfect time to update these critical components with the latest protection technology, ensuring reliable overcurrent and fault interruption.
