Electricity is used in many of the devices to create comfort in your home. Look around – air conditioning, air conditioning, solar, hot water tanks, stoves – they all run on electricity.
It is critical to have a variety of safety mechanisms to protect against fire and electric shocks should any of these devices malfunction. We can install and upgrade a number of safety devices such as circuit breakers, fuses and smoke alarms.
Both fuses and circuit breakers serve as the point of contact between the electricity network and a specific building.
Are the standard in modern switchboards because they are not damaged during heavy load, but simply trip and break the electricity flow. When the issue that caused the tripping has been resolved, circuit breakers can easily be reset.
Circuit breakers are also regarded as safer because they cannot be easily disabled by the consumer. Circuit breakers are classified into three types.
Thermal will react to heat generated by overload current circumstances. Magnetic will react to the magnetic field created by fault current conditions.
Thermo-magnetic will react to both the heat and magnetic field produced by overload current circumstances. This is the comparable circuit breaker to a slow blow fuse.

Did you know according to the National Coronial Information System, there are approximately 20 preventable deaths in Australia every year from electrocution, with more than half occurring in the home. Most of these tragedies are preventable, with electrical appliances the second-most common cause of electrocution.
Electric shock can be avoided by using safety devices. For only a small amount of outlay, you can protect your employees and family members to a higher degree, than your current set up.
When a current leakage is detected by the device it will cut off the power. By stopping the current flowing through a person, the device prevents electric burns or electric shock which can lead to serious injury or death.
Yes, both protect lives – but there are some significant technical differences. Every home has a main switch board with a breaker panel, which will house circuit breakers or fuse types. The main difference between the two is that a circuit breaker can be reset and used over and over again while a fuse is a one-shot deal, with a fuse wire that has to be replaced by a qualified person.
Rewiring your household does not always increase its value. Nevertheless, recognising that the electrics are fully updated and secure makes it more appealing to prospective buyers and much safer for your family. There is no value to put on such peace of mind.
