Local Consumer Unit Replacement in Shropham

Many older properties still have outdated fuse boards. Some may lack modern protection. Others may have limited space for new circuits, signs of damage, or repeated tripping issues.

Electric11 can assess your consumer unit and advise on the safest next step. First, we check the condition of the unit and the wider electrical system. Then, we explain if replacement is needed.

Our aim is to make your electrical system safer, clearer, and better suited to modern use. Also, we keep the process simple from inspection to final testing.

What Is a Consumer Unit?

A consumer unit is often called a fuse board. It distributes electricity around the property through different circuits. These circuits may power sockets, lighting, cookers, showers, outbuildings, and other electrical loads.

Modern consumer units include protective devices that help reduce electrical risk. These may include RCDs, RCBOs, and surge protection, depending on the property and design.

If your current fuse board is old, damaged, or missing modern protection, replacement may be recommended. This can improve safety and make future electrical work easier.

Signs You May Need a New Consumer Unit

You may need a new consumer unit if your fuse board is old, cracked, damaged, or uses rewireable fuses. Frequent tripping can also be a warning sign. In addition, buzzing sounds, burning smells, heat, or scorch marks should be checked right away.

A replacement may also be needed if you are adding new circuits. For example, EV chargers, solar panels, battery storage, extensions, and major renovations can increase demand on your electrical system.

If you are unsure, Electric11 can inspect the unit and give clear advice. An EICR Certificate can also help show the condition of the fixed electrical installation.
