When should the consumer unit be replaced?

  • The RCD trips for no clear reason
  • Old rewireable or ceramic fuses
  • Heat or a burning smell at the unit
  • No room for more circuits

What the replacement includes

  • Prior testing

    We test the insulation of the existing wiring before connecting it.

  • Enclosure and protection

    Flush or surface-mounted unit with main switch, RCDs and circuit breakers.

  • One circuit, one breaker

    Each line with its own breaker, matched to the cable size.

  • Surge protection

    A surge protection device to look after appliances and electronics.

  • Labelled circuits

    Every switch labelled, so you know which room it turns off.

  • Final tests

    We measure the earthing and check that every RCD trips correctly.

Consumer unit replacement in flats and houses: what we check

In older buildings in areas such as El Clot and El Camp de l'Arpa del Clot, we still find porcelain fuse holders or a single switch for the whole flat. Before fitting the new unit we test the insulation of every circuit, because very old cable is something to know about before it is reconnected.

In areas such as El Poblenou, El Parc i la Llacuna del Poblenou and La Vila Olímpica del Poblenou, we split the board across several RCDs so a fault in the bathroom or kitchen does not cut power to the whole home. The fridge and router usually go on a separate group from the rest.

With over 20 years in electrical installations, we replace the board methodically and leave the hallway clean and tidy. Nearby areas we also cover: Ciutat Vella, Eixample and Sant Andreu.

Consumer unit replacement in Sant Martí: which areas do you cover?

02

Can the consumer unit be replaced without rewiring?

Yes, if the wiring is in good condition. We test its insulation first; if any circuit fails, we point it out in the quote so you can decide what to do with it.

03

What does a surge protection device do?

It cuts the supply when a voltage spike arrives from the grid or a storm, protecting the fridge, boiler, computer and other connected equipment.

04

Will I be without power during the work?

Only while the old unit is disconnected and the new one is connected. We agree the time of the cut with you and leave everything working before we go.
