Your consumer unit — the fuse board — is the heart of your home's electrical safety. Older boards with rewireable fuses or no RCD protection don't meet current standards. We supply and install modern units with RCD/RCBO protection, fully tested and certified.

What's included

  • Modern metal consumer unit with RCD or RCBO protection on every circuit
  • Full test of the installation before and after the change
  • Certification and Building Control notification (Part P self-certified)
  • Any minor remedials needed to bring the board change up to standard

Gary was professional, polite, and fit us in earlier than I expected. He did a great job — would highly recommend and will definitely be using him again in the future.

Consumer Unit Upgrades — common questions

Why upgrade my fuse board?

Older boards often lack RCD protection, which guards against electric shock and fire. A modern unit protects each circuit individually and meets current BS 7671 regulations.

How long does a consumer unit change take?

Most domestic board changes are completed within a day, including testing and certification.

Will my power be off all day?

Only for the change-over itself. We keep the downtime as short as possible and let you know timings in advance.
