Consumer unit upgrades in Lincoln

Upgrade your home's electrical system with a modern consumer unit and the latest circuit protection. Professionally installed, fully tested and certified, giving you a safer and more reliable electrical installation.

Consumer units

The heart of your home's electrical system

Your consumer unit distributes and protects the electrical circuits throughout your home. Older units may not provide the level of protection expected from a modern electrical installation and can sometimes need upgrading before additional electrical work is carried out.

We replace your existing consumer unit with a modern unit, install appropriate protection for each circuit and thoroughly test the installation before providing the relevant certification.

Most consumer unit upgrades are completed within a day, with the electricity switched off for part of the installation.

When to consider an upgrade

Does your consumer unit need replacing?

  • You're installing an EV charger, electric shower, new hob or other high-demand equipment
  • Your existing consumer unit is outdated or still uses rewireable fuses
  • Your circuits don't have appropriate RCD protection
  • You're regularly experiencing tripping or electrical faults
  • You're a landlord and the EICR came back unsatisfactory
  • You're renovating, extending or making significant changes to your electrical installation
  • Your consumer unit has been altered or added to extensively over the years

We'll assess the existing installation and advise whether a replacement consumer unit is required or whether the issue can be resolved another way.
