A consumer unit, also known as a fuse box or distribution board, is a vital component of your home's electrical system. It controls and distributes electricity to various circuits in your property and provides protection against electrical faults, ensuring safety by preventing overloads and short circuits.

Signs that your consumer unit may need replacing include frequent tripping of circuit breakers, outdated models that don’t comply with current regulations, or a lack of modern safety features such as RCDs (Residual Current Devices). If your consumer unit is old or showing signs of wear, it's important to have it assessed by a qualified electrician.

A consumer unit replacement involves removing the old fuse box and installing a new, more efficient unit that meets current safety standards. The process typically includes upgrading wiring, adding RCD protection, and ensuring everything is compliant with UK regulations.
