Our Services Include
Secure Installation
Our Fuse box installation service involves installing a device that contains fuses to protect electrical circuits in a building. This typically involves connecting the main power feed to the fuse box, installing fuses or circuit breakers for individual circuits, and connecting the circuits to their corresponding outlets or fixtures.

Certified Electricians
It is important to note that in the UK, it’s mandatory for all electrical work to be certified and notified to the local building control. Therefore, it is important that the installation of a fuse box in London is done by a qualified and certified electrician who is able to provide the necessary certification and notification. And if you are looking for a professional then you are at the right place. Additionally, in London, as the city is older than other places, the buildings are also older, which means that the fuse box might not be up to date with the current regulations and it might need to be upgraded or replaced. We as qualified electricians will be able to advise on this and provide a solution.
What is a Consumer Unit?
A consumer unit is the main electrical control panel in a home.
The consumer unit will contain circuit breakers or fuses that protect the home’s electrical circuits from overload. Any time there is an issue with the electrical system, the consumer unit should be the first place to check.
In the United Kingdom, consumer units must meet certain standards set by the government. These standards ensure that consumer units are safe and reliable.
Some of the standards that consumer units must meet include:
Being made from non-combustible materials.
Having a minimum IP rating of IP2X.
Being able to withstand a voltage of 1,000 volts.
Consumer units must also be equipped with certain safety features, such as:
A main switch that disconnects all live conductors.
Residual current devices (RCDs) that protect against electrocution.
Overcurrent protection devices (OCPDs) that protect against fire.
What is a dual RCD Protected Consumer Unit?
A dual RCD protected consumer unit is a type of electrical consumer unit that has two RCD (residual current device) units installed. This provides extra protection against electrical shocks and fires, making it an ideal choice for homes and businesses. RCDs are devices that detect any current flowing through the earth, so if there is a fault in an electrical circuit, the RCD will trip and cut off the power supply. The RCD Monitors the amount of current flowing in and out of an individual circuit, if the flow of current is not the same, it will automatically trip the breaker, when the amount of current flowing inside a breaker and the amount of current flowing outside of the breaker is not the same this means that the current is being leaked somewhere in the wiring. This makes dual RCD protected consumer units much safer than standard consumer units.
How many Type of Consumer Units are available in the market?
Standard units
Standard units are the most basic type of consumer unit, and they typically have one main fuse or circuit breaker.
Dual RCD units
Dual RCD units have two main fuse or circuit breakers, which can provide additional protection against electrical faults.
Split load units
Split load units have a main fuse or circuit breaker and a separate sub-circuit breaker, which can be used to isolate specific areas of the property in the event of an electrical fault.
Do Properties need metal consumer unit as per UK Law?
As of Amendment 3 to the 17th edition of wiring regulations, metal consumer units have been a requirement in ‘NEW INSTALLATIONS.’ In actuality, this rule went into effect on 1st January 2016 for new consumer unit installations. We hearing from landlords that they are having electrical safety tests completed and failing because they do not have an up-to-date ‘new metal consumer unit’ or ’18th edition consumer unit.’
To be honest, each electrician has to use their own engineering judgement to produce an EICR.
There are guides to EICR Coding, however these cannot account for all situations as risks vary depending on the context. This is where a skilled and competent electrician will rely on their experience and intuition.
