As part of the electrical supply upgrade to NHP’s head office in Richmond, the main switchboard was replaced by a more robust CUBIC modular switchboard manufactured by Dara Switchboards.
The MSB is fitted with NHP premier range Terasaki switchgear and fitted with Selco arc detection relay with point sensors to reduce the effect from an arcing fault.
