When to replace your consumer unit — if your board uses old fuses, has no rcbo’s protection, or you've had persistent tripping or appliance damage, it's time to upgrade. Modern consumer units with rcbo’s and surge protection greatly reduce shock risk and protect expensive electronics against voltage spikes.
What JM Electric does on the day — we isolate the supply, remove the old unit, carry out tidy re-terminations and label circuits, then fit new rcbo’s, MCBs and surge protection where required. After thorough testing we issue a full Electrical Installation Certificate and explain the results, keeping disruption to a minimum for homes across Snodland, Maidstone and neighbouring Kent towns.
FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Typical consumer unit replacements take a few hours for a standard domestic board; larger or multi-occupancy installations take longer. We give an estimated duration on the quote and communicate any unexpected work before proceeding.
