When installing a new consumer unit we will always install a full RCBO board with Surge Protection included. This is the only type of consumer unit that fully complies with current regulations. An RCBO offers RCD and Over Current protection within one device, this minimises the chance of nuisance tripping whilst offering the highest level of safety and protection.
Before installing a replacement consumer unit we will always recommend carrying out an Electrical Installation Condition Report to determine the condition of your entire existing electrical installation (EICR). This is because the introduction of additional protective devices could show up faults within your electrical system that may have been there for a number of years but haven't been detected by your existing protective devices.
Our EICR prices for domestic properties start at £60 per consumer unit and £15 per circuit.
Replacement consumer unit prices start at £600
