Consumer unit and fuse board upgrades

Board Installations

Upgrade your old fuse box to a modern consumer unit with full RCD and RCBO protection. Essential for safety and compliance, a new board protects your home or business against electrical faults, overloads, and electric shock — and is required by most insurers and mortgage lenders.

Common Questions

Q01

How long does a consumer unit replacement take?

Most domestic consumer unit upgrades are completed in a single day. We minimise the time the power is off and always restore supply before we leave.

Q02

Do I need to upgrade my fuse board?

If your board has old-style rewirable fuses, no RCD protection, or fewer circuits than you need, an upgrade is strongly recommended for safety and compliance.

Q03

Will a new consumer unit affect my home insurance?

Most insurers prefer modern RCD-protected consumer units. Upgrading can reduce your premium and ensures your electrical installation meets current safety standards.
