Introduction
Installing a new switch board at home may seem complicated, but with the right guidance and safety steps, it can be easy and hassle-free. In this blog, we’ll explain how to install a modular switch board step by step, along with tips to keep your electrical setup safe.
1. Choose the Right Board
Before starting, decide which type of board you need:
• Number of switches required
• Do you need a fan regulator?
• How many sockets (6A or 16A)?
• Do you need an indicator?
👉 Note: A1LED switch boards are wall-mount only and not pre-wired.

• Screwdriver set
• Tester
• Wire cutter/stripper
• Insulation tape
• Screws & wall plugs
3. Switch Off the Power Supply
⚡ Always switch off the main MCB before starting installation.
This is the most important safety step to avoid the risk of electric shock.
4. Fix the Board on the Wall

• Place the A1LED modular plate and tighten it with screws.
