Signs I might need a fuseboard electrician

Keeping a watchful eye on the fuseboard at your home Cherry Burton demonstrates your responsibilities as a homeowner. Particularly if you suspect the fuseboard is faulty and on its way out.

Get in touch with Electrician Beverley if you notice lights flickering or dimming more frequently, if you notice the fuseboard tripping more than usual or if there are visible signs of damage to the unit itself. This might include scorch marks, cracks or loose cabling or wiring.

What if I have an older fuseboard?

As your local fuseboard electrician Cherry Burton, we recommend considering an upgrade if the fuse board is at least 15-20 years old. Unfortunately, older units are not compliant with current regulations due to the lack of many safety features. 

Older fuse boards are also incapable of handling the power loads of modern homes. Outdated fuseboard may also have degraded over the years and show signs of general wear and tear.
