Your fuse board — also called a consumer unit — is the heart of your home’s electrical system. It controls every circuit and is your first line of defence against electric shock, overloads and electrical fires. If yours is an old ceramic-fuse board or a plastic unit without RCD protection, it’s likely well overdue an upgrade.

Common questions about fuse board replacement in Wolverhampton.
Most domestic fuse board replacements are completed within a single day, including all testing and certification. If we’re also carrying out remedial works or the existing wiring needs attention, it may take a little longer — we’ll always give you a clear timeframe up front.
If your board uses old rewireable fuses, has no RCD protection, trips frequently or shows signs of overheating, an upgrade is strongly recommended. We assess your existing installation honestly and only recommend a replacement where it genuinely improves safety or compliance.
Your power will be off for part of the day while we swap the board over, but we keep disruption to a minimum and let you know the timings in advance. Most domestic replacements are completed within a day, with power fully restored before we leave.
Yes. Replacing a consumer unit is notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations. As a NAPIT-registered (Competent Person Scheme) contractor, we notify and certify the work for you, so it’s fully compliant and you receive the correct paperwork.
The cost depends on the size of the property, the type of consumer unit needed and whether any remedial works are required. Because every job is different, we provide a clear, honest, fixed quote after assessing your installation — with no hidden extras. Get in touch for a free quote.
They’re the same thing — "fuse board" or "fuse box" is the everyday term, while "consumer unit" is the correct technical name. Modern consumer units use circuit breakers (MCBs) plus RCD or RCBO protection that detects faults and cuts the power instantly, where older boards used wire fuses.

Called Sunday afternoon to ask about replacing our bathroom light switch — he came to fix it a couple of hours later. Fabulous job.
Came to me to check the electrics and make sure all is safe in a shed I built in the garden. Did a very thorough job! Very friendly and professional.

Very professional and friendly.
Fitted a new plug for me after another company who had fitted my appliance caused water to leak into the old wall plug. He arrived within half an hour of being called and completed the job in no time.
Excellent job, very knowledgeable and high standard of quality. Would recommend to anyone requiring electrical work!
Absolutely brilliant service. Adam was always approachable and available to speak to. Very knowledgeable and willing to answer all questions without hesitation. The only electrician that came out and did a test on a Sunday! Thank you Adam.
Came out last minute on a Sunday evening to sort my broken shower out. Polite, great communication and above all professional. 10/10, will be using again!
Adam had a flexible approach and wasn't fazed when the wiring wasn't as expected (the house is old and weird). He found the most effective way to fix the issue and make the system safe, with the absolute minimum of necessary damage.
