FUSE BOARD UPGRADES
Your fuse board, also called a consumer unit, distributes electricity around your property and contains devices that protect its circuits. Older boards may not provide the protection or flexibility needed for your current installation.
Sparks R Us can assess your existing setup and discuss whether a consumer unit upgrade is suitable. The right solution depends on the condition of the wiring, the circuits in use and any changes planned for your home or business.

These terms are often used to describe the board that distributes electricity to a property’s circuits and contains protective devices. Older boards may use rewirable fuses, while modern consumer units use circuit breakers and other protective devices.
Frequent tripping, visible damage, an older fuse type or plans to add circuits can be reasons to ask for an assessment. These signs do not confirm by themselves that replacement is required; the full installation should be considered.
An RCD is a safety device that can disconnect a circuit when it detects certain electrical faults. The type of protection and device arrangement should be selected for the specific installation.
