How dangerous is this old power panel?

How dangerous is this old power panel?

I just bought a house in the Netherlands, which was built in 1987, and I don't have grounding in my house at all. My panel also looks extremely old. Additionally, I have solar panels too.

My question is, how dangerous is this installation and the fact that grounding is missing?

Reasonable price to replace old electrical panel + add grounding in NL?

We’re planning to replace our old electrical panel (the one with the old porcelain fuses/switches) with a modern one and also add grounding to the house, since we currently don’t have any grounding at all.

Does anyone know what a reasonable price range would be for this kind of work in the Netherlands?

We received one quote for “minimum €5000,” which feels quite high to me — although I’m definitely not an expert, so maybe it’s normal. I’d just like to compare a bit before making a decision.

I also recently downloaded the Werkspot.nl app to look for more quotes, but I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences or opinions as well!

Wij willen onze oude meterkast (met de oude porseleinen stoppen/schakelaars) laten vervangen door een moderne groepenkast en daarnaast ook aarding laten aanleggen, omdat we momenteel helemaal geen aarding hebben.

Weet iemand wat hiervoor ongeveer een normale prijs is in Nederland?

We hebben een offerte gekregen van “minimaal €5000”, maar dat voelt voor mij best hoog aan. Ik ben geen expert, dus misschien is het een normale prijs, maar ik wil graag eerst wat vergelijken.

Ik heb inmiddels ook de Werkspot.nl app gedownload om meerdere offertes aan te vragen, maar ik ben ook benieuwd naar jullie ervaringen en meningen!

I live in the Netherlands and I started investing 2 years ago when I was 27. My goal is to invest long term (20+ years). Currently, my portfolio is 15k euros.

I invest €600 monthly in the following:

- IWDA - €360

- MEUD - €150

- EIMI - €60

- Alphabet/Nvidia - €15/€15 (every 6 months to avoid fees)

Is this a good strategy? Do you have any advice for a beginner?
