Old or overloaded DB boards can’t handle today’s wiring loads or Nyanga’s power fluctuations. We upgrade, tidy, and label your DB so protections work correctly, trips make sense, and power stays stable across all your circuits.
We begin by inspecting breaker types, wiring sizes, earthing continuity, and inverter or generator tie-ins. Then we design a clear upgrade plan — proper RCDs or RCBOs, surge protection, balanced circuits, and a neat enclosure if the old board is cramped or damaged.
Frequent tripping isn’t normal. It’s usually shared neutrals or unbalanced circuits. We separate, rewire, and label circuits properly so a trip means a real fault, not random outages every hour.
Surge protection is essential in Nyanga, especially during storms and when ZETDC restores supply. We add DB-level devices and ensure solid earthing so your TV, inverter, and fridge don’t take the hit.
For homes, shops, or lodges — whether in Juliasdale, Troutbeck, Nyamhuka, or Inyanga CBD — we deliver tidy boards, clear instructions, and safer operation for years to come.
FAQs
How do I know my DB needs upgrading?
If breakers trip constantly, sockets buzz, or the board looks overcrowded or burnt, it’s time. Many older homes and lodges in Nyanga lack RCDs and proper surge protection — we fix that safely.
What’s the difference between RCD and RCBO protection?
An RCD protects several circuits from earth leakage; an RCBO protects a single circuit from both leakage and overload. RCBOs minimise full power cuts and make fault-finding easier.
Why add surge protection in Nyanga?
Because supply spikes are common when ZETDC restores power after load-shedding. Surge devices protect fridges, TVs, routers, and inverters from those sudden voltage jumps.
Can you tidy generator and inverter wiring too?
Yes. We rework backup connections, install safe changeovers, and correct neutral/earth setups so protections still function properly under backup power.
Why does my RCD keep tripping even when everything’s off?
Usually moisture on outside circuits, shared neutrals, or poor insulation. We test each circuit and rewire or isolate the cause, then label it clearly.
Do you handle small fixes or only full replacements?
Both. From replacing one faulty breaker in Juliasdale to a full upgrade in Troutbeck, we scale the job to match your problem and budget.
