Established Yallambie homes and older switchboards
If your lights dim when the oven or heater starts, or you have to choose which appliances run at the same time, that is often a sign the board and circuits are being asked to do more than they were designed for.
Many Yallambie homes have been occupied for decades and still have the switchboard they started with – or one that has been added to piecemeal over the years.
Older homes are likely to have outdated switchboards and safety switches, which makes them more likely to short-circuit and cause problems. Meanwhile, the modern household has more appliances than ever.
Upgrading brings proper safety switch protection to your circuits and gives you room to add things like air conditioning or a renovated kitchen later.
