When Consumer Unit Replacment Essential

A new consumer unit improves the safety in your home and protects you and your family.  Are you having new lighting installed, more sockets or a shower?  Then this may mean you need to upgrade your consumer unit to allow for the work to happen.  It is standard practice to have a new consumer unit installed when you have a new kitchen fitted. Or when you are having an electric shower installed.  These new installations incorporate all the circuits in your home. And often leaves little space to add more circuits for any future electrical work.

Along with circuits intended to supply mobile equipment outdoors. And cables buried in walls. This means that every circuit in your home should be RCD protected.
