Old fuse boxes

This exposed collection of electrical apparatus is the main switchboard for our apartment block. Some of it is quite ancient and the board itself is asbestos, so it had to go. Replacing it has taken months as the original plan, designed by a qualified electrician didn’t meet the requirements of “the inspector”. So back to the drawing board and several months later….watch this space, as tomorrow the new, all whistling switchboard will be installed. Unfortunately it means no power for most of the day and possibly Thursday too, but a small price to pay for progress.
