Consumer Unit Upgrade

A consumer unit upgrade brings older fuse boards closer to modern BS 7671 expectations—especially where residual current protection is missing, devices are overloaded or the enclosure is damaged. Icomply plan and install consumer unit upgrades for homes, landlords and light commercial premises across Stockport, Greater Manchester and the North West with full testing and certification.

About Consumer Unit Upgrade

A good upgrade is more than a metal box swap: circuit labelling, earthing and bonding checks, and correct RCD/RCBO and surge strategy all matter. Where cables or circuits are not fit for a new board, we explain options before work starts so you are not surprised mid-job. Metal dual-RCD or all-RCBO boards are specified to suit the property and budget. After energising we test, issue an Electrical Installation Certificate for the work, and leave a tidy, labelled cupboard. Many domestic swaps complete in a day when circuits are healthy.

Consumer Unit Upgrade FAQ

How long does a consumer unit upgrade take?+

Many domestic swaps complete in a day if circuits are healthy. Older or complex installs may need extra time—we confirm after survey.

Will I need a full rewire as well?+

Not always. The upgrade can proceed if circuits are satisfactory; we only recommend rewires or partial rewires where testing shows genuine defects.

Do you notify Building Control?+

Notifiable domestic work is handled under the appropriate Part P route by our qualified electricians, with certificates for your records and solicitor packs.

Should landlords upgrade boards after an unsatisfactory EICR?+

Often yes when C1/C2 issues relate to protection or the board condition. We align the upgrade scope to the EICR findings so spend is justified.
