2) Fuse box replacement in Haywood Oaks

Have you noticed problems with our fuse box or electrical circuits at home? If the fuse box keeps tripping, the lights keep flickering or you experience electric shocks when turning an electrical appliance on, then yes, you might need a qualified electrician such as Definitive Electrical Solutions.

A fuse box or fuse board, commonly now known as a consumer unit, diverts incoming electricity from the mains supply to different areas in your home via different circuits. Older fuse boxes contain thin pieces of metal which melt when a sudden surge in electricity or overload is experienced. This feature is designed to keep you safe during such emergencies.

You can imagine that changing the fuse is quite time consuming and dangerous. Definitive Electrical Solutions recommend homeowners and landlords replace older fuse boxes with modern consumer units. 
Consumer units still protect you and your home from sudden power surges but the benefit here is that they contain modern features such as RCDs. Residual current devices are switches which can detect very small fluctuations in current, immediately switching off the supply of current, preventing electric shocks and faults which could lead to electrical fires.

Traditional fuse boxes tend to degrade over time due to general wear and tear or water damage. In our experience, we find that older fuse boxes can’t cope with the electrical demands of a modern household. We tend to use a great deal of electrical appliances and in some cases have a greater electrical demand for features such as underfloor heating or EV charger systems.

As NICEIC approved electricians, we are fully trained and up to date with industry regulations and installation guidance for modern consumer units. Another reason why we believe older fuse boxes are no longer safe as they do not meet the current electrical safety regulations.

Once we have replaced your fuse box, we ensure all connecting components are functioning as they should and conduct tests to ensure the fuse box is safe. At Definitive Electrical Solutions, our electricians use sensitive testing tools to assist with any thorough tests we conduct.
