Bro, a word of advice, please get the help of a certified electrician. I used to work as a electrician many years ago when I was much younger, even with a certain level of experience, I won't touch the electrical box let alone changing of ELCB and ECB.

Please take note there's live wire in it unless you shut off from the main electrical board outside your unit. Stay safe.

Lighting Load
6-10A (cable use 1.5mm)

Power Load
20A -30A (cable radial or ring circuit)

Thanks....but how this thing look like? What is cable radial or ring circuit?

1) The solution to this particular problem is to add more MCB and split some of the socket to the extra MCB.

2) As others have mentioned using 32A MCB with writing only meant for 10, 15 or 20A MCB will lead to fire when there is an overload.

3) fire you electrician and get one that gives good advice.

You better get a qualified electrician - make sure he is registered with TNB before you engage.    Wire-cable thickness is very important ... if the load more than wire can handle then it will overload which leads to wire becomes heated up which leads to electrical fire.

Each wall power socket should not be more than 13A which means your fuse should be 15A.  And depending on how your electrician wired up your sockets previously ... some electricians do short cut ... they put multiple wall socket on one wire example one room you ask 3 sockets ... that may be shared with 1 wire 1 MCB ... thus it is no better than an extension bar ... maximum load combined is only 13A.

Kitchen appliances such fridge, washing machines, microwave, electric stove, etc. usually will require its own dedicated socket and MCB ... that would be around 20A each. This especially true if you use very old appliances.  New modern appliances nowadays use a lot smaller amps - so a standard 13A can support. 

You better check your appliance power draw requirements and count ... to be safe make sure total amp to 1 wall socket is no more than 13A.  If you are overloading ... you have inefficient electric wiring which leads to high power loss which leads to a higher power bill.

So when it comes to electric wiring ... don't play-play ... be penny wise pound foolish.

Hope that helps.

Any electrician real good and qualified one to recommend?

How man? The existing DB Box is full and I have so many power points and dont know how it was connected if one wire shares many points.

You can get electrician to add an extra sub-board, either next to the existing one or some other place in your house then run 60A or 100A cable from that sub-DB back to your main DB.

But I expect that will cost something like RM1-2k including hardware (RM700-1200).

Cheers.

Bro, please check your PM.

Thanks. Can show a picture of your DB kah? Just want to know how many MCB you have and how complicated it is.

Also, the wires now terminated at the DB box and how to connect to another place without major re-wiring?

Here you go.

Cost is not so much of a problem. The problem is under the existing box below are a row of switches sure got wire running in the wall.

Also, the wires now terminated at the DB box and how to connect to another place without major re-wiring? Even next to it still need to connect and lengthen the wire one by one? 

This time i want to make sure i know what is to be done before getting electrician to do what he wants or easy cincai job.

Yeap, sorry to say it wont be a simple job.

If you have usstairs and downstairs then most of the wires will run from upstairs to downstairs at the same place, somewhere near the DB, most likeley just above it.

Then the easiest solution is to put a sub-BD upstairs near that common location and connect all those wires from upstairs into that DB, then run one big wire downstairs to the main DB. now your upstairs sub-DB should have several spare CB slot, and you will have freed up several CB slot in the downstairs DB. then can add in extra DB as required.

In Australia most of our internal and even most external walls are cavity walls, so its very easy to run extra wires.

Here in Malaysia the wires usually plastered into the brick wall so have to hack the wall to run new wires. If your super lucky the electrician will have placed some conduit in the birck/concrete wall and you can pull a new wire through that without hacking the wall, but from what ive seen that is very very very rare case in Malaysia.
