Switchboard Upgrades & Safety Switches around Orient Point
Much of the housing in Orient Point was built decades ago. Older homes like these often still have original switchboards, ceramic fuses or only one or two safety switches, and wiring that was never designed for today's appliances.
Switchboard upgrades are one of the most common jobs in older homes. Replacing ceramic fuses with circuit breakers and safety switches on every circuit is a real safety improvement.
Salt air near the beach corrodes standard outdoor fittings and switchgear, so outside work in Orient Point uses fittings rated for coastal conditions.

- Old ceramic fuse boards replaced with modern circuit breakers
- Safety switches (RCDs) added to power and lighting circuits

Why safety switches matter
A safety switch cuts power in a fraction of a second if current leaks to earth, for example through a person. Older homes often have none, or only one protecting the power points. We'll check what you have and recommend what's needed.
