Get in touch with B.Martin Electrical to discuss your fuseboard replacement in Lincoln.

Do You Need a Fuseboard Replacement?

Older fuseboards may not provide the same level of protection as modern consumer units. If your property still has an older fuseboard, it may be worth having it inspected by a qualified electrician.

You may want to consider a fuseboard upgrade if:

• Your fuseboard is old or showing signs of damage
• You still have an older-style fuseboard with rewireable fuses
• You are carrying out a renovation or electrical upgrade
• You are experiencing regularly tripping circuits
• You have recently purchased an older property
• You are adding new electrical circuits
• Your existing consumer unit does not provide adequate protection
• You want to improve the electrical safety of your property

Not every older fuseboard automatically needs replacing. B.Martin Electrical can assess your existing installation and explain your options before any work is carried out.

Consumer Unit Upgrades in Lincoln

Replacing a fuseboard involves more than simply swapping one box for another. The existing electrical installation needs to be assessed to ensure the new consumer unit is appropriate for the property and its circuits.

Depending on the installation, a replacement consumer unit may incorporate modern protective devices such as RCDs and RCBOs, helping provide additional protection against electric shock and electrical faults.

At B.Martin Electrical, we take care to ensure your new consumer unit is installed correctly, tested and documented following the work.

Fuseboard Replacement Lincoln FAQs

How much does it cost to replace a fuseboard in Lincoln?

The cost of a fuseboard replacement depends on the type of consumer unit required, the number of circuits, the condition of the existing installation and whether any additional electrical work is necessary.

The best way to establish the cost is to have your installation assessed and receive a clear quotation for the work.

How long does a fuseboard replacement take?

Many straightforward consumer unit replacements can be completed within a day. However, the exact time depends on the property, number of circuits and condition of the existing electrical installation.
