Replacing Older Fuse Boards across Cumbria
Rewired Cumbria carries out fuse board upgrades in Workington and throughout the Cumbria region.
The upgrade typically involves removing your existing consumer unit and replacing it with a modern unit incorporating appropriate circuit protection.
Before replacing the board, the existing electrical installation will need to be assessed to make sure the circuits are suitable for connection to the new consumer unit.
This is important because fitting a new board does not automatically correct faults elsewhere within the electrical installation.
If any issues are identified during testing, we’ll explain what has been found and discuss the most appropriate way forward.
A modern consumer unit can incorporate several important safety devices designed to protect both people and electrical equipment.
Surge Protection
Surge Protection Devices help protect electrical equipment from sudden voltage surges within the electrical supply.
RCD & RCBO Protection
Residual Current Devices and RCBOs are designed to disconnect the electrical supply rapidly when certain types of faults are detected, providing an additional level of protection against electric shock and other electrical hazards.
Our consumer unit/fuse board upgrade services in Cumbria are carried out by NAPIT Approved electricians to provide a safe installation, completed professionally and in accordance with the relevant requirements.
Why Upgrade Your Old Fuse Board?
Older fuse boards were designed to standards that may no longer provide the same level of protection as a modern consumer unit.
In some properties, the existing board may still use traditional rewireable fuses or may not include modern protective devices such as RCDs, RCBOs or surge protection.
A consumer unit upgrade can help bring the electrical installation up to a more modern standard and provide improved protection against electrical faults.
You may want to consider an upgrade if:
Your property still has an old-style fuse box
The existing board is damaged/deteriorating
You want to improve the safety your electrics

What Our Customers Say...
"Absolutely first class, quality workman ship and no follow up, usually with a 35 year old house you expect a few issues with a circuit board / consumer unit up grade and a ev charger install, but switched on and everything was spot on. Also very reasonably very priced. Don’t worry about using rewired Cumbria."
Google Review

Google Review
"We had a couple of sockets stop working out of the blue.Not only did they pop round and diagnose the faulty wiring very quickly that day. But made us safe by replacing our old consumer unit with a modern one. Service was with a smile and was clean and tidy. Wouldn't hesitate to recommend, thank you."
