Why Do You Need a Fuse Box Upgrade?
Your fuse box (or consumer unit) is responsible for protecting your home from electrical hazards. Over time, fuse boxes can become outdated, especially in older homes. A modern upgrade can provide:
- Improved Safety: Modern fuse boxes have updated safety features, including RCD protection that reduces the risk of electrical shocks and fires. Learn more about RCD protection.
- Increased Capacity: If you’ve added appliances or are installing new technology, an upgrade can ensure your system can handle the load without overloading.
- Energy Efficiency: With a more efficient fuse box, you can manage your energy usage better, helping to save on electricity bills.
