Organised around you.
We understand that no one wants their supply switched off for more than absolutely necessary, and so we will organise around you as far as possible.
There are different solutions depending on your needs and your budget, and we pride ourselves on giving you the best possible advice - even if that sometimes means you don't need to do anything.
Consumer Unit or Fusebox?
Back in the day, what we now refer to as consumer units were called fuse boxes, simply because they contained fuses. Fuses have largely been replaced with MCBs (Miniature Circuit Breakers).
Is there anything wrong with fuses? Not necessarily. It is a common misconception that fuses do not meet regulations and must be replaced, but that is not always the case. MCBs are easier to use though, as they can be reset rather than replaced when they blow.
We will always give you honest advice on whether a replacement is genuinely needed, and which solution suits your needs and budget.
