Is it time for a new consumer unit?
Electrical installations should be checked every 10 years, and every five years in rented properties. Moving into a new house is a really good time to assess whether the consumer unit is still keeping you safe and functioning as it should.
We pride ourselves in our bespoke consumer unit replacement service.
The benchmark standard for our installations is to always uphold the 18th Edition Wiring Regulations requirements and provide an RCBO consumer unit with an integral surge protection device. This is designed to protect any electronic device in your home in the event of a power surge.
If you are worried about the state of your current consumer unit, or you have an old style rewireable “fuse box”, get in touch and we can give you free advice and a quote for upgrading your installation to a modern unit with up-to-date safety features.
Are my electrics safe?
Satisfaction Guaranteed
EICR
The electrics in your home must be safe for your protection. The best way to find out whether the systems in your house are safe is to ask a qualified electrician to carry out an EICR (electrical installation condition report). In the UK, this should take place every 10 years in a domestic property, and every five years if you live in a rented home. A property should also ideally be tested before being sold so that the buyers know the condition of the electrics. Commercial premises often require more frequent checks. Some properties such as thatched roof houses may require an EICR for insurance purposes too.
If it’s been a while since you have had your electrics tested, get in touch via our interactive quote form and we’ll give you a quick cost estimate . For the relatively small cost, the peace of mind is priceless. Ask for an “electrical installation condition report” or “EICR”.
What happens in an electrical installation condition report?
There are two basic parts to an EICR: visual checks and electrical tests. For the visual checks, we look at lights and sockets to see if they’re damaged or deteriorating. We check wiring, bonding and earthing and we look at the consumer unit to assess its condition and whether it meets current safety regulations.
Electrical tests involve putting an electrical current into a circuit to measure the resistance of the earthing, and to check the insulation of the wiring. We also check that the wires are the right way around (polarity) and that the RCD (trip switch) operates within the correct time and specifications.
We produce detailed reports after every inspection, which we can also pass on to insurers and tenants if necessary. If we find anything that isn’t safe, we will take photos and attach them to the report, so you know exactly what the problems are. We’ll also provide a free, itemised quote for fixing them!
