Consumer Unit Replacement and Installation
Outdated fuse boards (also called consumer units) pose serious risks to your property and safety. At Lumiel, we specialise in replacing old, unsafe fuse boards with modern consumer units that meet the latest UK electrical regulations. Our certified electricians deliver fast, reliable, and fully compliant upgrades - ensuring your home or business in South West London remains safe, efficient, and future-proof.
Why Upgrade Your Consumer Unit?
Enhanced Safety
Modern consumer units (fuse boards) are designed with advanced safety features that provide reliable protection for your home and loved ones.
Key Safety Features:
- RCDs (Residual Current Devices): Continuously monitor your electricity supply and instantly switch off the power if a fault occurs, such as a stray current or a malfunctioning appliance.
- RCBOs (Residual Current Breaker with Overcurrent Protection): Protect individual circuits by combining RCD and overcurrent protection in one unit, offering high-integrity, reliable safety.
- SPDs (Surge Protection Devices): Installed where recommended, these guard your appliances against sudden voltage spikes caused by lightning or power surges.
Benefits of Upgrading:
- Prevent electric shocks
- Reduce the risk of fires
- Protect your valuable appliances
- Keep your home safe automatically, giving you genuine peace of mind
Upgrading your consumer unit isn’t just about compliance—it’s about creating a safer, smarter home.
Legal Compliance
Upgrading your fuse board ensures your property meets current UK electrical regulations. This is especially important for landlords, who must pass EICR Testing & Inspections to comply with rental safety standards.
Reliable Power
New consumer units offer better circuit isolation, meaning fewer disruptions and safer operation for your appliances. They also accommodate modern electrical demands, such as EV chargers, smart home systems, and high-power devices.
