FAQ's
What is a Consumer Unit, and Why Does It Need Upgrading?
A consumer unit, often referred to as a fuse box, is the heart of your home's electrical system. It distributes electricity to various circuits and provides a safety mechanism in case of electrical faults. Upgrading is essential to ensure it meets current electrical safety regulations, improve efficiency, and reduce the risk of electrical fires and other hazards. Modern consumer units include Residual Current Devices (RCDs) and circuit breakers that offer superior protection compared to older fuse boxes.
How Long Does a Consumer Unit Upgrade Take?
The duration of a consumer unit upgrade varies depending on the complexity of your electrical system and the specific requirements of the upgrade. Typically, an upgrade can take anywhere from a few hours to a full day. Our team at Manchester Electrical Contractors aims to minimize disruption to your daily routine and will provide a more accurate time estimate after the initial assessment of your property.
Will There Be a Power Outage During the Upgrade?
Yes, there will be a temporary power outage during the consumer unit upgrade as it involves disconnecting your property's power supply to safely conduct the upgrade. Our team will plan the upgrade at a convenient time and work efficiently to ensure the power outage is as brief as possible. We understand the importance of minimizing inconvenience and will keep you informed throughout the process.
