What Is a Consumer Unit Upgrade?
A consumer unit (fuse box) controls and protects all electrical circuits in your property. Older fuse boards often lack modern safety features such as RCD and RCBO protection, increasing the risk of electric shock and fire.
Upgrading your consumer unit improves:
Electrical safety
Compliance with BS 7671 regulations
Protection against faults and overloads
Reliability for modern electrical use

How to Stay Safe During an Electrical Emergency
Electrical Shock
If someone receives an electrical shock, do not touch them while they’re still in contact with the electrical source. Immediately turn off the power at the breaker if you can do so safely. Once the power is off, check the person for breathing and responsiveness. Call emergency services right away and provide first aid only if you are trained.
Burning Smell or Sparks
If you detect a burning smell or see sparks from an outlet or appliance, unplug it only if it’s safe to do so, and contact an emergency electrician right away.
Child & Pet Safety
Keep children and pets away from any area where an electrical issue is occurring. Block off the space, turn off the power if possible, and ensure they cannot touch outlets, cords, or appliances while you assess the situation. Use outlet covers, cord protectors, and teach children never to insert objects into electrical sockets.
Regular Inspections
Schedule periodic electrical inspections to identify worn wiring, overloaded circuits, or aging components before they become dangerous. Have a licensed electrician review your panel, outlets, switches, and high-use appliances. Early detection helps prevent emergencies and ensures your home stays code-compliant and safe.
