Important Information

It’s important that you know where your fusebox is in case you ever need to turn the electricity off in an emergency. Your fuse board usually contains three things used to control and distribute electricity around your home.

They are 'The main switch' the 'Fuses' and/or circuit breakers; and Residual Current Devices. Our knowledgeable trained engineers can show you the following important information.

A) Main Switch – this allows you to turn off the electricity supply to your home. You might have more than one mains switch, for example if your home has electric storage heaters. In this case you may have a separate fusebox.

B) Residual Current Devices (RCD) these are switches that trip a circuit under dangerous conditions, and instantly disconnect the electricity.

C) Circuit Breakers – these are automatic protection devices in the fusebox that switch off a circuit if they detect a fault. They are similar in size to fuses, but give more precise protection. When they ‘trip’, you can simply reset the switch. Our team are highly skilled in these tasks and are able to replace your old fuse boards / consumer units with a modern 17th Edition consumer unit with minimal disruption at a time which is most convenient for yourself.
