Consumer Unit Upgrades

HOW WE WORK

The consumer unit (fuse box) is the heart of your home’s electrical safety. If your property still uses an old-style fuse box with rewirable fuses, it may not provide adequate protection against modern electrical faults. We specialize in upgrading consumer units to the latest 18th Edition standards, featuring RCD (Residual Current Device) and SPD (Surge Protection Device) technology. These upgrades provide instant disconnection in case of a fault, protecting your family from electric shocks and preventing electrical fires caused by power surges.

FAQ

How do I know if my fuse box needs an upgrade?
If your current box has wooden backing, rewirable fuses (wire wrapped around a carrier), or lacks a "Test" button, it is likely outdated and potentially unsafe by modern standards.

How long does it take to replace a consumer unit?
A standard upgrade usually takes between 4 to 6 hours. This includes the physical installation and the mandatory safety testing of all circuits in your home.

Will my power be off during the installation?
Yes, the electricity will need to be turned off for the duration of the work. We plan this carefully with you to ensure minimal disruption to your daily routine.
