Your consumer unit — often still called a “fuse box” — is the heart of your property’s electrical safety. Older units can no longer meet current UK wiring regulations, leaving homes and businesses at greater risk of electrical fires and shocks.

Why should I upgrade my consumer unit?
Older fuse boxes often lack modern safety protection like RCBOs and may no longer meet current UK wiring regulations. Upgrading reduces the risk of electrical fires and shocks, and is often recommended after an EICR inspection.
Will I need certification after the upgrade?
Yes. Every consumer unit upgrade completed by NG Power Solutions includes full testing and certification, confirming the work meets current UK safety standards.
How long does a consumer unit upgrade take?
Most domestic consumer unit upgrades are completed within a day, though this can vary depending on the size and complexity of the property.
Will there be a power cut during the work?
Yes, a temporary power shut-off is required to safely carry out the upgrade. We'll agree a convenient time with you in advance and keep any disruption to a minimum.
