Your Fuseboard is the Heart of Your Electrical Safety

Outdated fuseboards can’t provide the level of protection needed in today’s homes. A modern consumer unit protects each circuit individually, reduces fire risk, and ensures compliance with current UK wiring regulations.

Upgraded consumer unit

Fire-Rated, Fully Labelled, and Professionally Installed

We install sleek, metal-clad fire-rated consumer units fitted with RCBOs or dual RCD setups depending on your home's needs. Every circuit is labelled, tested, and fully certified — giving you total confidence.

Do You Really Need to Upgrade?

If your fuseboard has rewirable fuses, lacks RCDs, or hasn't been checked in over a decade — the answer is yes. It’s not just about meeting regulations — it’s about protecting your home, family, and appliances.
