Looking to upgrade the meter box in your home? Petrelli Electrical is the one that you can rely on to get the job done right. If your electric meter box is outdated, you will experience several issues such as odd sounds coming from the fuse box, flickering lights, tripping breakers, and burning smells and smoke coming from switches and outlets. When you notice these warning signs, or if you realise that the current electricity flow is not sufficient to power the home appliances, upgrading your meter panel to 200 amp is necessary.
Upgrading your meter box is not just a safety precaution. It’s an essential step to meet today’s electrical demands and ensure your property complies with current Australian safety standards. At Petrelli Electrical Services, we specialise in meter box upgrades across Melbourne’s northern suburbs. We provide fast, reliable, and fully certified solutions for residential properties.
Why Is It Necessary To Upgrade Your Meter Panel?
The growing power demand for appliances, solar systems, EV chargers, and ducted heating cannot be handled by older meter boxes. They are often equipped with ceramic fuses and antiquated cabling. Here are some reasons why your house may need an upgrade of electrical meter box:
Safety First
Outdated fuse boxes pose a serious fire hazard. To prevent electric shocks and electrical fires, modern switchboards are equipped with RCD safety switches and circuit breakers that are immediately cut off in the event of a malfunction.
Improve Efficiency of Electrical Appliances
The type of meter box you have in your home can have a big impact on the efficiency of your electrical appliances. If you have a panel with 200 amp, you can enjoy greater electrical flow, which in turn allows you to use a lot of electrical appliances at a time.
Reduce the Risk of Overloading and Fires
With 100 amp meter panel, you will have to stuff a bunch of appliances which increases the likelihood of overloading. However, you can minimise the risk of overloading with a 200 amp meter panel which is less prone to short circuits and fires.
Upgrade Outdated Electrical Infrastructure
Outdated fuse boxes pose a serious fire hazard. To prevent electric shocks and electrical fires, modern switchboards are equipped with RCD safety switches and circuit breakers that are immediately cut off in the event of a malfunction.
Compliance with Australian Standards
As safety regulations have evolved, properties are now expected to comply with the AS/NZS 3000 Wiring Rules. Upgrading the electrical meter box ensures your system meets these modern requirements, especially if you're planning renovations or selling your property.
Increased Power Demand
With several air conditioners, home offices, induction cooktops, and smart gadgets, modern homes use more power than ever before. An electric meter upgrade ensures your electrical system can handle the load efficiently and safely.
The demand for electricity and the number of electrical devices used in every modern home puts a lot of strain on the existing meter panel. If your home has an old-generation meter panel or the system that appears dangerous, contact us for a meter panel upgrade.
