Fuse Board & Consumer Unit Upgrades in Manchester

At Manchester EICR Limited, we specialize in fuse board (consumer unit) upgrades, ensuring your electrical system is safe, compliant, and capable of handling modern power demands. If your property has an outdated fuse board, upgrading to a modern 18th Edition consumer unit with RCD and RCBO protection significantly reduces the risk of electrical faults, fires, and shocks.

Why is an EICR necessary before upgrading your consumer unit?

Certified Electricians | Safe & Compliant Installations

Are you looking for a fuse board upgrade in Manchester? If your consumer unit is outdated, faulty, or lacks RCD protection, upgrading to a modern unit is essential for electrical safety and compliance.

At Manchester EICR Limited, we provide professional fuse board upgrades with full compliance to 18th Edition Wiring Regulations (BS 7671). However, before we replace your fuse board, we always carry out an Electrical Installation Condition Report (EICR) to assess the condition of your property’s wiring.

Ensures your existing wiring is safe and compatible with the new fuse board
Identifies hidden faults that could cause future electrical hazards
Confirms compliance with the latest UK electrical regulations
Required for landlord safety certificates and insurance compliance

If your property hasn’t had an EICR in the last 5 years, we strongly recommend booking one before replacing your fuse board.

Why You Need an EICR Before a Fuse Board Upgrade?

Before replacing your consumer unit, a full EICR test is required to ensure:

Your wiring is in good condition and free from defects

There are no dangerous connections or earth faults

Your circuits are suitable for modern safety devices (RCDs & RCBOs)

No underlying issues could cause a fire or power failure

If the EICR reveals faults, they must be fixed before installing a new fuse board. This ensures that your electrical system is safe, compliant, and future-proof.

Already have a recent EICR? Great! If your property has been tested within the last 5 years, we can proceed with your fuse board upgrade right away.
