Questions

Fuse Box (Consumer Unit) Replacement: common questions

Is consumer unit replacement regulated?

Yes. In England it is notifiable work under the Building Regulations, so it has to be certified by a registered installer or checked by building control. Nick is a NAPIT Approved Contractor; ask him how it will be certified for your job.

Will I need to be without power?

Power is switched off while the old unit is swapped for the new one. Nick can tell you how long to expect for your property when he gives you the estimate.
