This Milton Keynes project photo shows a white metal FuseBox consumer unit with its lid open. The row of protective devices, the main switch and the circuit descriptions are visible from the front, giving a clear view of the finished board layout.
A closer look at the board
The consumer unit is the point where individual electrical circuits are distributed and protected. In this photograph, the circuit labels identify different lighting, socket and appliance circuits, while the pink surge protection module is positioned beside the main switch.
Clear labels help a homeowner recognise which circuit a device relates to. The equipment chosen for any upgrade depends on the property’s electrical installation; a photograph of one board is a useful example, rather than a specification for every home.
Discussing a fuseboard upgrade
If your existing consumer unit is old, damaged or difficult to identify, we can discuss an assessment and the options for replacement. Let us know the type of property, any electrical concerns and whether you are planning additional circuits or other improvements.
