  • We lay your needs before all else

    Your West Ewell based property's fuse boards may well be in need of an upgrade in order to satisfy the latest industry standards and regulations. If they are old fuse boards, then they need to be upgraded to a metal consumer unit which is safer and more reliable for your structure.

    With newer consumer units (fuse boards), your building benefits from having one MCB (miniature circuit breaker) per electrical circuit in your space, meaning each circuit is more smooth sailing to manage. It means that if there is a blemish on one, your other circuits are not impacted.

  • Common questions on consumer units in West Ewell
    Why do I need a new consumer unit?
    Why do I need a new consumer unit?

    Apart from the need to comply with government regulations, the latest consumer units are safer and enhance the efficiency of your home’s energy usage. Each circuit on your unit will have it’s own break which further minimises the risk of overloads, which can drain your energy consumption.

    You should view your consumer unit as an investment, which adds value to your property via reduced bills, as well as protecting our property by decreasing the likelihood of electrical fires.

    What is the difference between a fuse box and a consumer unit?
    What is the difference between a fuse box and a consumer unit?

    They are actually used for the same purpose. However, a fuse box is an older version of a break board, and a consumer unit is the upgraded, modern and much safer version. The older fuse box in most cases will no longer be compliant with the law. It functions inefficiently and isn’t easy to manage.

    For example, if a fuse box experiences an electrical overload, the overloaded wire will melt and the circuit can not be switched back on until that wire is found and replaced. This will obviously incur costs for the owner. The modern consumer unit has a break switch which turns itself off should a faulty current be detected.

    How can I tell if I have a fuse box or consumer unit?
    How can I tell if I have a fuse box or consumer unit?

    A consumer unit has a series of switches in a horizontal row that detect individual surges in the different circuit systems in your home. A fuse box has a series of wires linked to one switch only and that one switch controls the entire circuitry in your building.

    Are old fuse boxes illegal?
    Are old fuse boxes illegal?

    In a word, no. But they aren’t very safe either as they have no modern technology protections on them. And if they do not comply with current government regulations (which they probably don’t) and you operate in any sort of commercial capacity, you will need to upgrade to a modern consumer unit.

    Can I DIY my fuse box replacement?
    Can I DIY my fuse box replacement?

    Unless you are a qualified and registered electrician, it would be unwise. And, even in an instance where you are, if you going to rent out the premises in question, it is better to have a 3rd party do it for you as then the entire process as well as the certificate issued will be viewed as impartial.
