When to upgrade

Signs it's time for a new consumer unit

If any of these sound familiar, an upgrade is worth looking at.

  • Old wired or plug-in fuse board
  • No RCD protection on the existing board
  • Board with signs of damage, scorch marks or overheating
  • Adding an EV charger or major new circuit
  • Failed EICR with consumer unit listed as a fault
  • Renovation work that benefits from a fresh start

What you get

What modern consumer units can include

A modern board does more than the old wired fuses ever could.

RCD protection

Trips quickly on earth faults. A key modern safety feature.

RCBO circuits

Each circuit on its own RCBO so a fault only affects one circuit, not the whole house.

Surge protection

Optional SPD to help protect appliances from voltage spikes.

Clear labelling

Every circuit clearly labelled so faults can be isolated quickly.

Aidan completed the electric wiring in my garage conversion recently and was extremely professional and friendly. He also advised me on old, unsafe electrics that had been installed by the previous home owner and safely isolated them for us and installed a new thermostat. Would highly recommend Aidan for any electrical work!

Excellent service from start to finish. He arrived on time, explained the work clearly, and completed everything to a very high standard. The work area was left clean and tidy, and the pricing was fair and transparent. Professional, reliable, and friendly throughout. I would highly recommend their services to anyone looking for a trustworthy electrician.
