Consumer Units
An up-to-date consumer unit is essential for the safety of your home or business. We supply and fit modern consumer units with RCD protection, replacing old fuse boards that no longer meet current standards.
All consumer unit upgrades are tested, certified, and registered with the relevant local building authority, giving you full documentation for insurance and conveyancing purposes.
