Rewiring and Fuse Board Upgrade Project
Summary
A full house electrical rewire and fuse board upgrade were completed for a homeowner experiencing regular tripping and outdated wiring. The project included new cabling, new sockets and switches, a modern fuse board with full Residual Current Device (RCD) protection and complete testing and certification.
Overview
A homeowner contacted us after experiencing ongoing electrical issues, including circuit tripping and general instability in the system. They were planning further improvements to the property and wanted to ensure the electrical setup was safe, reliable and fully up to current standards.
Following our initial inspection, we identified aged wiring and an outdated fuse board that no longer offered adequate protection. To address this, we recommended a complete wiring upgrade along with a fuse box replacement that would provide modern safety features through a new consumer unit.

Project Scope and Services Delivered
- Full Property Wiring Upgrade
The existing wiring showed clear signs of wear, so we removed the old cabling and installed updated wiring throughout the home.
Each area of the property was assessed carefully to ensure that the new layout offered better durability, improved organisation and safer distribution of power.
During the process we also fitted new sockets and switches, ensuring that each point met current safety expectations. Once the wiring was in place, we carried out detailed checks to confirm that all circuits were running smoothly.
- Fuse Box Replacement and New Consumer Unit Installation
The original board did not provide the level of protection required by modern electrical regulations. We completed a full fuse box replacement and fitted a new consumer unit equipped with advanced protective devices.
Every circuit was clearly labelled so the homeowner could easily understand the system. We also talked them through the safety features of the new setup and explained how the protections in the unit help reduce risks.
- Testing, Certification and Project Handover
After the wiring update and installation of the new consumer unit, we carried out full system testing. This included checks for continuity, insulation resistance and trip performance.
Once testing was complete, we issued the homeowner an electrical certificate along with clear documentation for their records. We then completed a final walkthrough to ensure they fully understood their upgraded system.
Project Outcome
The property now has a safer, more stable electrical network supported by a modern fuse box The new consumer unit provides a much higher level of protection and gives the homeowner confidence in their upgraded system.
The client appreciated the clear communication throughout the project and now has an electrical setup that is secure, compliant and ready for long term use.
