Consumer Unit Upgrade with Surge Protection
Completed: January 2026
The Challenge
A homeowner's electrical installation predated modern safety standards, with an old rewirable fuse board. Repeated blown fuses and concerns about safety prompted an upgrade.
The Solution
We installed a new metal consumer unit with RCBOs for individual circuit protection, Type 2 surge protection device, and appropriate cable upgrades where needed. Full testing and certification was provided.
The Outcome
Result
New consumer unit installed, full certification, surge protection added
A modern, safe electrical installation that meets current regulations. The surge protection has already saved equipment during a local power surge, and the family has complete peace of mind.
