What is a Consumer Unit?

A consumer unit, also historically referred to as a fuseboard, is the central hub of your home's electrical system. It houses protective devices like fuses or circuit breakers (MCBs) and an RCD (Residual Current Device) to safeguard against electrical overload, short circuits, and earth leakage currents that can cause fires and electric shock.

Signs Your Consumer Unit Needs Upgrading

  • Age: Consumer units exceeding 40 years old might require replacement. Older units may not meet current safety standards and may be more prone to faults.

  • Condition: Damaged or worn-out units (rust, corrosion, loose connections) should be replaced immediately.

  • Capacity: Adding new appliances may necessitate a capacity upgrade to accommodate the increased electrical demand.

  • Regulations: Upgrading might be necessary during electrical installation alterations to comply with current regulations.

  • EICR Findings: An EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report) may recommend a consumer unit upgrade.
