What is a Fuse Box?
A fuse box, also known as a circuit breaker or consumer unit, is a vital component in your electrical system that protects your home and electronics from power surges and short circuits. It is responsible for controlling and distributing the electrical power throughout your home and is typically located in a utility room or garage.
Fuse Box Installation:
- Consultation: Our team will come to your home and assess your current electrical system to determine the best type of fuse box for your needs.
- Planning: We will create a detailed plan for installing your new fuse box, ensuring that all necessary permits and approvals are obtained.
- Disconnection: Our technicians will safely disconnect the power supply to your old fuse box before proceeding with the installation.
- Installation: Your new fuse box will be expertly installed by our skilled technicians, ensuring a precise and efficient process.
- Testing: Our team will thoroughly test your new fuse box to ensure it works properly after installation.
- Cleanup: We will leave your home clean and tidy without evidence of the installation process.
If you have a circuit that occasionally trips, don’t just leave it until next time. Nuisance tripping like this is a fault that should be made safe.
The costs of replacing a fuse box or upgrading a consumer unit to a more recent once can vary greatly as it will depend on many factors such as:
- Which type of consumer unit is needed
- The number of circuits required
- How old the exiting installation is

Tripping fuses, faulty switches and broken sockets shouldn’t be left without being repaired. They all represent a potential risk of electric shock.
The most common causes of a fuse to trip or blow are:
- An electrical circuit is overloaded
- Too many appliances used together
- An faulty appliance is being used
- Electric cooker rings are faulty
- A problem with an immersion heater
- Poor connections on appliance leads
- Faulty lamps blowing
If you have a circuit that occasionally trips, don’t just leave it until next time. Nuisance tripping like this is a fault that should be made safe.
