As an experienced electrical contractor, the new consumer units I fit improve the safety of electrical systems in properties in Ascot. To help you know when you need a consumer unit upgrade, I have identified some common signs for you to look out for.
On average, a consumer unit should last 20 to 30 years. Older consumer units are more likely to not comply with the latest building regulations and safety standards and typically have less capacity for handling the required power for modern appliances and devices. If your consumer unit is 20 years or older, a replacement would be worth considering.
If you experience regular circuit tripping, this suggests that your consumer unit is overloaded. When this happens, it can damage wiring and circuits in your electrical system and could lead to electrical hazards. Upgrade your consumer unit to avoid future issues.
As a professional electrical contractor who provides emergency electrical call outs, EICR certificates, garden lights and more, DIY electrical work is never something I encourage. However, if you or a previous owner has done any, it’s crucial that the consumer unit is checked for compliance with current regulations and to see if it’s safe for use. DIY work can also damage wiring and circuits, leading to electrical fires and shocks, so it’s best to check the consumer unit and replace it if it’s not fit for use.
As mentioned previously, adding modern devices or appliances to your Ascot home can place extra demands on your consumer unit. This may include EV charging points, heat pumps or air conditioning units. New consumer units are better equipped to deal with the additional power demands of modern electricals, giving you the capacity you need.
If you need an electrician in Surrey for a new consumer unit, garden lighting, EICR certificates, emergency electrical call outs or related services, Next Level Electrics is in your corner.
