Consumer Unit Replacement & Upgrades in Essex – Essex Home Electricians

The consumer unit (sometimes called a fuseboard or fusebox) is the heart of your property’s electrical system, safely distributing mains power to every circuit—sockets, lights, and more. At Essex Home Electricians, we help you choose the right consumer unit for your needs, explain how it works, and provide professional installation across Essex.


Why Upgrade Your Consumer Unit?
Safety, Compliance & Modern Protection

Upgrading to a modern consumer unit with miniature circuit breakers (MCBs) and residual current devices (RCDs) offers crucial benefits:

  • Enhanced safety for your family and property

  • Faster, easier reset in the event of a fault (no more fiddling with fuse wire in the dark!)

  • RCD protection, which rapidly disconnects power if a fault is detected—protecting against electric shock

  • Compliance with the latest wiring regulations (18th Edition)

  • Futureproofing for new circuits or extensions

  • Easier, safer maintenance and repairs

If your current unit is outdated, lacks RCD protection, is damaged, or you’re planning new circuits, it’s time to consider an upgrade.


Our Consumer Unit Installation Process
Expert Service from Start to Finish

  • We assess your needs and recommend the best unit for your property and budget (Hager, MK, Lewden, and more)

  • Old fuseboards are safely removed and replaced with metal-clad, regulation-compliant consumer units

  • Power is switched off for a few hours while each circuit is professionally connected and tested

  • Full electrical testing is carried out before and after installation

  • You receive an Electrical Installation Certificate and full building control notification


Consumer Unit Options & Features
Tailored to Your Home or Business

  • Dual RCD or RCBO consumer units for minimal disruption in case of faults

  • Surge Protection Devices (SPDs) and Arc Fault Detection Devices (AFDDs) available for extra peace of mind

  • Futureproofed with spare ways for new circuits or extensions

  • Specialist garage, shed, and outbuilding consumer units


When Should You Replace Your Consumer Unit?
Common Reasons for Upgrading

  • Old fuse wire boards or units without RCD protection

  • Insufficient “ways” for new circuits

  • Damaged or insecure units

  • Upgrades recommended by an EICR (Electrical Installation Condition Report)

  • Adding new outbuildings, extensions, or major appliances
