Older electrical switchboard panels and meter panels were manufactured from asbestos/resin or asbestos coal tar pitch composite. These asbestos products had brand names such as Zelemite, Lebah, Ausbestos, and Miscolite. These usually have a smooth finish on the surfaces which are dark brown to black in colour and also have a strong tar or bituminous smell to them.
If this looks like your switchboard or your board contains one of the names above then its time for an upgrade.
Not only is the asbestos dangerous to breathe in when broken but old fuses are hazardous, brittle and require rewiring each time they blow.
