A consumer unit, otherwise referred to as a fuse board acts as the control centre for a properties electrical system. Different consumer units can be used for different applications depending on the property type and size. A consumer unit usually acts as a first point of contact for querying electrical faults within a home, and its interface reflects this. With most consumer units you will expect to see a mains switch, RCD and switches for circuit breakers corresponding to different parts of the property.
Consumer units can differ depending on the type of property. Units present in commercial properties must consider different use scenarios in addition to safety. Residential/domestic properties require a different set of requirements to detect and remedy faults.
While most faults cannot be diagnosed easily, there are a few important things we can look out for with our consumer units to ensure their safety:
A faulty consumer unit can be a fire hazard, unnecessarily inflate electric bills and interfere with the safe operation of appliances in your home or business.
Consulting a registered electrician is required, work must be completed to the latest safety standards and the task itself requires an understanding of the complex electrical system in your property.
It can be overwhelming to select the correct fuse box for your property with so many options on the market. If you are uncertain and need a helping hand, we have a wealth of experience selecting and installing consumer units in London.
