Fuse Board & Consumer Unit Upgrades
An old fuse board is the single biggest electrical risk in most older properties.
About this service
Wooden-back fuse boards, plastic enclosures and unprotected circuits are common in London properties built or rewired before 2008. Leon Electricians Ltd upgrades fuse boards to modern metal-clad consumer units with full RCBO protection, surge protection and proper circuit labelling - usually within a single day.
What we do
Consumer unit replacement
Strip out the old board, install a new metal enclosure and re-terminate all circuits cleanly.
RCD & RCBO upgrades
Add proper residual current protection to circuits that currently have none.
Surge protection devices
Protect sensitive electronics from lightning and grid spikes.
Circuit labelling & testing
Every circuit tested, labelled and recorded on the certificate.
When to call us
- Your fuse board has rewireable fuses or a wooden back
- The board is plastic and pre-2008
- You have no RCD protection on socket circuits
- Your EICR has flagged the board as C2 or C3
