We upgrade fuse boards for homes and businesses
Commercial Fuse Board Upgrades
We replace outdated consumer units in shops, offices, and rental properties. Our upgrades help you stay compliant and reduce the risk of power outages. We can work outside trading hours to keep disruption low.
Residential Fuse Board Upgrades
If your fuse board is over 20 years old, it may not meet current safety rules. We upgrade old systems with modern RCD protection for better safety and reliability. Ideal for homeowners, landlords, or anyone planning a renovation.

WHY SHOULD YOU UPGRADE
YOUR FUSE BOARD?
Old fuse boards can be unsafe and may not meet today’s standards. Upgrading improves safety, protects your property, and supports modern electrical use.
A fuse board upgrade is important for:

Safety
Old fuse boards often lack RCD protection. This can increase the risk of shocks and fires. We install modern consumer units that cut power instantly if a fault is detected.

Regulations
We upgrade to meet the latest UK standards (BS 7671). This is important for passing inspections and staying compliant with legal and insurance requirements.

Performance
New fuse boards are designed to handle higher electrical loads. They prevent overloads and make your system more efficient and reliable.

Property Value
A modern fuse board can make your property more appealing to buyers or tenants. It shows the electrics are up to date and safe.
