Does this switchboard look familiar? It could be time for an upgrade

Andy from Illuminex Electrical

Of the roughly 5000 building fires in New Zealand every year, about 1000 are due to electrical problems.
The switchboard is the heart of the home when it comes to electrical, however many NZ homes still lack proper electrical protection.
The switchboard pictured contains an asbestos backing panel and outdated fuses which have zero protection against you or your family receiving nasty electric shocks. If your switchboard doesn't contain electrocution protection devices such as RCD's, then it is due for an upgrade.

What's one highway or road that needs attention?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

We've all been on a summer roadie and experienced first-hand the state of our roads.

If you've ever been stuck in a summer traffic jam, had near-misses on dangerous turns or feared for your life on clifftops (while the car behind you is tail-gating!) - you may have an opinion on this one.

Tell us what main road or highway you think needs some serious attention across the country, and why!
