Switchboards
The switchboard is the central hub of your Nowra or Shoalhaven property’s electrical system. It directs electricity to where it is needed throughout your home or business, shutting down power to specific areas in cases of power surges or other anomalies. Modern switchboards are highly efficient and effective, but those of the past may no longer be up to the demands of modern electronics and higher electrical demand.
While switchboards can typically remain functional for 25 years or more, that doesn’t necessarily mean that you should stick with your existing panel. As technology advances, it becomes more efficient, and the infrastructure of your electrical system needs to advance as well. A modern, properly functional switchboard can help your property maximise its electrical use efficiency while also preventing shorts in the system.
Surge Protectors
Although not as common as they once were, power surges can still happen, and they can sometimes cause serious damage to your appliances or electronics. In the worst-case scenario, a power surge can even fry your electronic device from the inside out, potentially erasing all of your stored data and preferences in the process. Then, you’d have to start from scratch with new devices while still facing the risk that a power surge might happen again.
Surge protectors are designed to absorb any fluctuations in power, particularly sudden increases in power surges. They can then redistribute that power as needed, doling it out gradually to protect your electronics. Even if the system surges, your devices will be protected, giving you greater peace of mind.
Safety Switches
While surge protectors can go a long way towards protecting your Nowra or Shoalhaven home or business, safety switches take that protection a step further. Safety switches constantly measure the amount of power flowing through your cables so they can turn the power supply off if there are energy fluctuations.
For example, if you dropped an electric shaver into a full sink, the safety switch would immediately cut the power, saving you from possible electrocution. Similarly, if you come into contact with an exposed, frayed or cut wire, the safety switch would prevent you from being electrocuted. This seemingly simple device can truly be a lifesaver, so be sure to install some in your home or business right away if you don’t have them already.

Always notified me when they were coming & arrived on time. The electrician was honest, & explained what was going on when the new safety switches exposed pre existing wiring issues in my house. He provided a solution & did the additional work at a reasonable price to resolve the issues. Very happy.
