Old fuse box to a new consumer unit
Rewireable fuses replaced with a modern board, RCBO protection and every circuit labelled.
Photos illustrate this type of job.
Before and after
Drag to compare.
An old fuse box on a wooden board, and a new consumer unit with every circuit protected and labelled.
The job
Fuse wire and ceramic fuses give no protection against electric shock. A modern consumer unit adds RCD protection on every circuit, surge protection and clear labels, so a fault switches off one circuit rather than the whole house.
How we do it
- Check the existing wiring before changing the board
- Fit a new metal consumer unit with RCBOs
- Add surge protection
- Label every circuit
- Test, then show you how to reset a tripped circuit
