Consumer Unit Upgrades

Your consumer unit (fuse board) is the heart of your home's electrical system. If yours still has rewireable fuses or no RCD protection, it may not protect you properly against electric shock or electrical fire.

We supply and fit modern metal consumer units, check the earthing and bonding, test every circuit and issue the certification. In most cases the power is only off for a few hours.

What's included

  • Metal-cased consumer units to current BS 7671 standards
  • RCD and RCBO protection on every circuit
  • Surge protection devices (SPDs) available
  • Main bonding checked and upgraded where required
  • Most units swapped and certified in half a day
  • All work tested, labelled and certified

Common Questions

How much is a consumer unit replacement?

It depends on the number of circuits and the protection you choose, but we give a fixed price upfront with no extras. Call for a quote tailored to your board.

How long does the swap take?

Typically three to five hours including testing and certification. We bring everything needed so it's done in one visit.

Do I need one when selling or renting out my home?

Buyers' surveys and EICR reports frequently flag old fuse boards. Upgrading first removes a common negotiation point and keeps landlords compliant.
