Is a Consumer Unit Upgrade Right for You?
A consumer unit upgrade is ideal if your current fuse board is outdated, frequently trips, or doesn’t meet modern safety standards. Many older systems lack the protection required to prevent electric shock, overloads, and fire risks.
If you’re a homeowner, landlord, or business owner, upgrading ensures your property is compliant with current regulations and capable of safely handling today’s electrical demands. It’s also often required during property sales, renovations, or when adding new circuits.
Our team will assess your current setup and provide honest advice, so you only upgrade when it’s genuinely needed.
Do I need to upgrade my consumer unit?
If your fuse board is old, uses fuses instead of circuit breakers, or lacks RCD protection, an upgrade is strongly recommended for safety and compliance.
How long does an upgrade take?
Most consumer unit upgrades are completed within a day, depending on the size and complexity of your system.
Will my power be turned off?
Yes, power will need to be isolated during installation, but we keep downtime to a minimum and work efficiently to restore it as quickly as possible.
Will I receive certification?
Absolutely. All work is fully tested and certified to meet current UK wiring regulations.
Is it a messy job?
Not at all. We carry out all work cleanly and leave your property exactly as we found it.
