Fuse boards (also called consumer units) are the beating heart of your home. These vital pieces of kit manage the electricity coming into your property, and distribute it to all your sockets and switches. Most people don’t give their fuse boards a second thought – until it fails! As well as powering all your devices and appliances, fuse boxes play a critical safety role. If any of your wiring is faulty, your fuse board will protect you. As soon as there is a problem, the fuse board will trip the circuit, preventing further damage, or even fires. If you have any questions about a replacement fuse box, call Ohms Electrical Limited’s expert electricians today. 

If you are uncertain about the age or condition of your fuse board, we would highly recommend having it checked by one of Ohms Electrical Limited’s qualified electricians. Major electrical works may require a replacement fuse board.

Older fuse boards are more likely to malfunction. Even if your system has been regularly serviced over the years, it could be subject to general wear and tear. This can lead to inefficiencies or failures.

Outdated models may also be constructed of materials which no longer conform to modern regulations. For example, fuse board backs made of wood or constructed in plastic pose a fire risk potentially helping it to quickly spread. A metalboard, on the other hand, will help contain a fire. We recommend that you replace your fire-propagating fuse box as soon as possible.

We’re here to help and make sure that you only replace if you need to. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact Ohms Electrical Limited.
