Industrial Switchboard Upgrading And Repair Service
Modern technology and energy demands in the current rapid changing industrial environment put a lot of pressure on electrical distribution systems. Industrial switchboard is the main control center where power is distributed to manufacturing factories, warehouses, factories, and large facilities. Outdated or undersized switchboards may cause interference to operations, prone to fire, and failure to accommodate future growth or technology-related changes. Unisolec is your professional upgrader of industrial switchboards and repairer throughout Australia with reliable solutions to guarantee safety, efficiency and industry standards.
The Reason to Upgrade an Industrial Switchboard
Most industrial processes require powerful equipment, automation and other electrical equipment with heavy loads that cannot be accommodated in most homes or businesses. A poorly equipped obsolete switchboard can be unable to cope with these requirements leading to:
- Frequent electrical faults and outages
- Overheating components or tripping breakers
- Reduced operational efficiency and productivity
- Increased risk of electrical fires
- Non-compliance with current safety regulations
An upgrade of your switchboard increases the capacity, safety, and scalability of your facility, opening the door to future technological integration of automation, energy management systems, or renewable energy solutions.
When Might an Industrial Switchboard Upgrade be Required?
It is essential to learn the symptoms that will alert that an upgrade or repair is required:
- Frequent tripping of circuit breakers or system faults
- Overheating or burning smells near switchgear
- Dimming or flickering lights during operation
- Visible damage or corrosion on switchboard components
- Outdated or recalled switchgear brands (e.g., Federal Pacific, Zinsco)
- Expansion plans involving new machinery, equipment, or automation systems
- Installation of new energy sources like solar, or energy storage systems
As an emergency service, Unisolec provides timely inspections and thorough evaluations to find out whether repairs are adequate or an upgrade is necessary to ensure safety and operational integrity.
