“It's working isn't it?" If we had a £1 for every time we heard that! Tack Electrical Solutions Loughton are talking about outdated electrics and why they might need a Fuse Board Replacement. Remember nothing shocks me, I’m an electrician!
Why you might need a Fuse Board Replacement
Some examples of how technology has changed over the years… Would you still be using a 30-year-old phone or computer? Or how about a car – braking is now safer with ABS. This superseded cadence braking where you had to pump the brake pedal in an emergency stop situation.
So if you were reading that and nodding along lets now tell you why you might need a Fuse Board Replacement. If you’ve got a very old/ outdated design it might not meet current safety standards and be at risk of breaking down. Also if you’ve burn marks, melting or any other sign of damage it could be a hazard and need a replacement. If your circuits keep tripping they might be overloaded, or your fuse board could be at fault. Constant flickering lights can be a problem with wiring or again an overloaded fuse board. There are so many reasons it might be needed and just because it’s working, doesn’t mean it’s safe!
Improved safety with a Fuse Board Replacement
RCD Protection – Installing Residual Current Devices on all circuits protects against earth leakage that causes electric shocks.
Most modern standard RCD’s trip within 40 milliseconds when they detect a fault like a possible shock situation. An old fuse’s trip time is much slower. Varying based on the current overload and fuse type, but it can take several hundred milliseconds or even a few seconds before blowing
MCB Protection – Modern Circuit Breakers work better for overload protection. They automatically cut the power when a circuit draws too much current. They stop overheating and possible fires from starting.
Metal Enclosure – A Fuse Board Replacement uses a metal enclosure instead of plastic. This makes it more fire resistant.
Compliance with Regulations – Upgrading with Tack Electrical Solutions will make your electrical system comply with current building regs and safety standards
