It is standard procedure that as a part of replacing your consumer unit your existing electrical wiring must be fully tested. See EICR reports and certificates for more information on electrical testing and inspections.
Our qualified and competent electricians will carry out a series of tests to ensure that your existing wiring is suitable for a modern '18th edition' consumer unit with incorporated RCD (Residual Current Device) before installing it. Without such testing, there is a possibility that the new consumer unit will pick up any existing underlying wiring faults and continuously trip, leaving you without power.
Usually there are no problems when installing a new consumer unit fuse box (people still call it a fuse box but fuses are no longer used). If there are problems, we will highlight these, allowing you to make appropriate decisions on whether to proceed or not, in rare circumstances the electrical wiring within the existing installation may be so outdated or faulty it will require part or full rewiring.

MCB stands for ‘miniature circuit breaker ‘, A circuit breaker is an automatically operated electrical switch designed to protect an electrical circuit from damage caused by over-current/overload or short circuit. Its basic function is to interrupt current flow after Protective relays detect faults condition.
AC1 can install or upgrade consumer units with new MCBs.
RCD stands for ‘residual current device’ and is designed to prevent you from getting a fatal electric shock if you touch something live, such as a bare wire. It can also provide some protection against electrical fires. RCDs can help protect you from electric shock in potentially dangerous areas like bathrooms and gardens, and there are various types of RCDs that can be used to make sure you are always as safe as possible.
RCBOS stands for Residual Current Circuit Breaker. It combines the functionality of an MCB and an RCD
If your consumer unit uses RCBOS, your circuits are protected individually. This might mean some of your lighting stays on when there's a fault on another circuit. Each circuit is protected individually.
RCBOS consumer units cost a bit more than RCD consumer units, but it can save you from losing all power in your property at the same time.
A RCBOS consumer unit protects each circuit individually. It's better than an RCD consumer unit, but costs more.
A dual RCD consumer unit allows two groups of circuits to be protected separately. If one circuit has a fault, the other circuit might be unaffected. It's cheaper than a RCBOS consumer unit, but still has some separation between circuits.
If you don't have RCBOS, and just have an RCD consumer unit, you still have fault protection but a fault on one circuit will remove power from multiple circuits.
AC1 is fully insured for domestic and commercial electrical work on customer premises.
AC1 is trusted to complete electrical repairs and installations to the highest standard. If there is any problem with our services, please contact us in writing. If we are at fault we will rectify the issue immediately.
