Expert Consumer Unit Replacement in Liverpool
Why Upgrade Your Consumer Unit in Liverpool?
Your consumer unit (often still called a fuse box) is the heart of your home's electrical safety system. If your current unit is old, outdated, or still uses old-fashioned rewireable fuses, it's not providing the level of protection required by modern safety standards.
Replacing your old fuse box with a new, 18th Edition-compliant metal consumer unit is one of the most important electrical upgrades you can make.
Key Reasons to Choose an Upgrade:
Enhanced Safety: Modern units feature RCD (Residual Current Device) or RCBO (Residual Current Breaker with Overcurrent Protection) protection. These instantly cut the power in milliseconds if an earth fault is detected, providing vital protection against electric shock and fire.
Compliance with Regulations: We ensure your installation meets the latest BS 7671 IET Wiring Regulations (18th Edition), which is essential for home insurance and future-proofing your property.
Protection Against Surges: Many modern units include a Surge Protection Device (SPD) to safeguard your expensive electronics (TVs, computers, smart appliances) from power surges.
Non-Combustible Enclosure: We install metal-clad consumer units as standard, offering superior fire resistance over older plastic models.
