A DB board upgrade enhances the reliability of your electrical system. The DB board controls the flow of electricity through various circuits in your property, so ensuring its proper function is critical. We perform detailed inspections to identify damaged components, signs of overheating, or improper wiring. Once identified, we upgrade to new, high-quality DB units equipped with modern circuit breakers, surge protection, and safety switches. The result is a safer, more resilient electrical setup that meets current regulations and supports your growing power needs.

Our main distribution board installation services are essential for new constructions and major electrical renovations. The main distribution board distributes electricity from the main supply to sub-circuits, and its correct design and installation are crucial for stability and safety. Our electricians calculate load requirements, install breakers of the correct rating, and ensure proper cable sizing. We also integrate surge protection, isolators, and residual current devices to safeguard both people and equipment.

If your existing board is damaged or outdated, we offer distribution board replacement services. Replacement is often necessary when components have deteriorated, or the system no longer complies with SANS safety standards. Our team removes the old unit safely, installs a modern, energy-efficient replacement, and performs complete system testing. We also provide documentation confirming compliance and quality assurance.

We offer residential distribution board upgrade services tailored to homeowners. Many older houses still use fuse boards or outdated breakers that cannot handle modern appliance loads. We replace these with modern boards featuring safety switches, surge protection, and clear circuit labelling. This not only improves electrical reliability but also increases property value and compliance for home insurance and resale.

For businesses, we provide commercial distribution board upgrade solutions designed for performance and scalability. Offices, retail stores, and hospitality venues rely on consistent electricity to power lighting, air conditioning, and IT systems. Our electricians upgrade boards to support heavier loads, integrate backup power connections, and include surge protection for sensitive equipment.

We also specialise in industrial distribution board upgrade services for factories, warehouses, and processing facilities. These upgrades support high-demand operations by using heavy-duty breakers, copper busbars, and three-phase connections that ensure balanced power distribution. Our systems are engineered for durability, safety, and minimal downtime during the upgrade process.

A SANS-compliant distribution board upgrade ensures your electrical system meets South African safety and performance standards. Compliance with SANS 10142 is mandatory for all electrical installations, and our electricians ensure every component—from wiring to breakers—is tested and approved. We also issue Certificates of Compliance (CoCs) after every completed upgrade for your records.

We perform electrical panel upgrades to modernise older systems and improve safety. Our upgrades include replacing obsolete breakers, rewiring faulty connections, and installing surge protection devices. New panels are designed for energy efficiency and ease of maintenance.

Our switchboard upgrades cover the replacement or enhancement of both main and sub-switchboards. Switchboard upgrades are necessary when capacity increases, or safety regulations change. We install new enclosures, breakers, and isolators that can handle higher current loads while improving fault protection.

We offer power distribution board installation for new builds and renovations. Each installation is custom-designed to match your property’s layout and power demand. Our installations follow SANS standards and include comprehensive testing to ensure stability and performance.

When components become outdated or unsafe, we provide circuit breaker panel replacement services. We install new breakers that meet the latest electrical safety standards, providing better fault protection and load management.

Proper electrical load balancing is crucial for preventing overloads and uneven power distribution. We measure circuit loads and adjust breaker ratings or redistribute wiring to maintain stable operation. Load balancing improves energy efficiency and reduces tripping incidents.

For industrial and commercial properties, we handle three-phase distribution board installation projects. Three-phase systems deliver higher power efficiency for heavy machinery and equipment. Our electricians design and install boards that distribute current evenly across all phases, improving reliability and reducing energy waste.

Our fuse board replacement service helps transition older electrical systems to modern breaker-based setups. Fuse boards are outdated and prone to overheating or failure. We replace them with circuit breaker systems that offer better protection and ease of reset after faults.

We perform electrical safety compliance upgrades to ensure your system aligns with current electrical codes. This includes upgrading wiring, installing new breakers, and adding surge protection to meet insurance and legal requirements.

Our team is skilled in DB board wiring and connections, ensuring every joint, lug, and cable is properly secured and insulated. Poor connections can cause heat buildup and electrical faults, so we take extra care to ensure lasting safety and performance.

Distribution board inspection and testing form an essential part of our maintenance service. Using insulation resistance testers, continuity checks, and thermal imaging, we detect loose connections, worn components, or hidden faults before they cause major issues.

As part of our service offering, we assist with electrical system modernisation, upgrading outdated infrastructure to support modern appliances and renewable energy integration. We replace old cabling, upgrade boards, and enhance overall system performance.

We provide load centre installation for homes and small businesses, distributing power evenly across circuits while providing fault protection. These installations improve safety and efficiency in smaller electrical systems.

Our breaker panel maintenance ensures that breakers remain functional and responsive. We clean, test, and recalibrate panels to maintain safe operation and extend lifespan.

We install energy-efficient electrical panels designed to reduce power loss and improve performance. These panels use advanced materials and technology to ensure minimal resistance and maximum safety.

Our electrical fault protection upgrades add layers of safety to your system. We install RCDs, surge protectors, and high-sensitivity breakers that respond instantly to faults, preventing electrical fires and damage.

We perform electrical system capacity upgrade projects to increase the overall power handling capability of your system. This is crucial when adding new equipment or expanding your property. We size and install new components to safely accommodate higher current flow.

Our distribution board repair and servicing helps maintain board reliability. We repair damaged breakers, replace burnt connectors, and rewire circuits where necessary. Preventive servicing reduces unplanned downtime and increases system longevity.

We also provide electrical surge protection installation, adding devices that protect sensitive electronics and machinery from power surges caused by lightning or grid fluctuations. Surge protection is essential in South Africa, where power instability is common.

Our electricians perform main switchboard rewiring for large facilities that require modernised or expanded electrical systems. Rewiring involves replacing old cables, upgrading breakers, and reorganising circuits for improved performance.

Finally, we offer electrical safety certification South Africa services for all electrical upgrades and installations. After inspection and testing, we issue Certificates of Compliance verifying that your electrical system meets all safety standards and legal requirements.

At Electricians Near Me, we take pride in delivering professional, safe, and efficient distribution board upgrades across South Africa. Every installation, replacement, or repair is handled with technical precision and a commitment to quality. With our SANS-compliant systems, qualified electricians, and customer-focused approach, we make sure your electrical distribution remains reliable, efficient, and ready for the future.
