We offer consumer unit upgrades to keep your home safe and compliant. Consumer units/ fuse boxes are the central hub of your electrical system that distributes electricity throughout your home. Over time and typically in older properties, these units can become outdated and potentially dangerous.
So, if you suspect your consumer unit is due for an upgrade, please get in touch with our team for a free estimation.
A consumer unit or fuse box that is older than 20 years, could be pose potential risks in your home. Electrical fires and possible electrocution are just some of the issues that are associated with older consumer units. Inefficiency as well as unreliability are also some other problems. Upgrading your unit to a more modern system is going to add safety, peace of mind and even increase property value for your home.
If your home still has an outdated fuse box with re-wireable fuses, we will upgrade it to a modern RCBO or dual RCD consumer unit for better safety and efficiency.
Improved Safety – Modern units include RCD protection, which helps prevent electric shocks by quickly cutting power if a fault is detected.
Compliance with Regulations – Upgrading ensures your system meets the latest 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (BS 7671).
Better Fire Protection – New consumer units are made with non-combustible materials, reducing fire risks.
Increased Capacity – If you’re adding new circuits (for an EV charger, extension, or new appliances), an upgrade ensures your system can handle the extra load.
Reduced Risk of Power Failures – Older fuse boxes can be unreliable, while modern units offer better fault detection and faster response times.
Property Value – A modern consumer unit can improve a property’s safety rating and may be required for insurance purposes or selling a home.
