Consumer Unit & Distribution Board Upgrades
Single-phase and three-phase fuseboard upgrades, and domestic and commercial distribution board upgrades.
The EICR comes first. Its cost comes off your upgrade.
When a consumer unit upgrade is required, we carry out an EICR first, so you have a clear understanding of the condition of your existing installation and any additional work needed to ensure your property is safe and compliant with current regulations.
The price of that test is then taken off your upgrade cost as a discount.
Single-phase
Fuseboard upgrades for homes and smaller premises, with the protection the circuits need.
Three-phase
Distribution board upgrades for commercial premises and larger installations.
How an upgrade is carried out
Before the work
- Checking the existing installation and earthing
- Agreeing the size and type of the new unit
- Planning a power-off time that suits you
- Explaining what will and will not be affected
Fitting
- Safely isolating the supply
- Removing the old unit and fitting the new one
- Reconnecting and labelling every circuit
- Fitting the protection the circuits need
Testing and paperwork
- Testing each circuit before it is switched on
- Providing the certificate the work requires
- Showing you how the new unit works
- Noting anything else we found that you should know
Every circuit labelled, tested and explained.
Questions
It depends on the installation. We tell you the likely time before we start so you can plan.
