Frequently Asked Questions
What is a consumer unit and why is it sometimes called a fuse board?
A consumer unit – also known as the fuse board or fuse box – is the heart of your home or business electrical system. It distributes electricity safely to all the different circuits and protects the wiring and appliances from overload or faults.
How do I know if my consumer unit needs replacing or upgrading?
Common signs include an old fuse board with rewirable or cartridge fuses, frequent tripping, visible scorch marks, or if it’s struggling to cope with modern electrical demands (such as additional appliances, extensions or home offices). Outdated units can also put your property at risk of overloading or fire hazards.
What are the main benefits of upgrading my consumer unit?
A modern consumer unit significantly improves safety by reducing fire risks from overloading or faulty wiring, handles today’s higher electrical loads more reliably, can lower home insurance premiums (many insurers now require up-to-date installations), and can increase the resale value of your property.
Will a new consumer unit installation comply with current UK regulations?
Yes. Every consumer unit replacement or new installation we carry out at Matson Electrical fully complies with the latest BS 7671 IET Wiring Regulations (currently the 18th Edition including Amendment 2) and all relevant building standards, giving you complete peace of mind and valid certification.
