Fuse Board Replacement & Consumer Unit Upgrades in Maidenhead

Safe, certified consumer unit replacements and upgrades for homes and businesses across Maidenhead, Windsor and Berkshire.

Expert Fuse Board & Consumer Unit Upgrades in Maidenhead & Berkshire

DB Electrics provides professional fuse booad replacement and consumer unit upgrades for homes and businesses across Maidenhead, Windsor, Marlow, Wokingham and the wider Berkshire area. Whether your current consumer unit is old, unsafe, or simply no longer meets the demands of your property, our qualified electricians will replace or upgrade it efficiently and to the highest safety standards.

Many older properties still have fuse boards that use re-wirable fuses or early circuit breakers that offer little protection against electrical faults. A modern consumer unit fitted with RCD or RCBO protection provides a far higher level of safety, cutting power instantly if a fault is detected and significantly reducing the risk of electric shock or fire.

If your fuse board is more than 25 years old, or if you’re experiencing regularly tripping circuits, it may be time for an upgrade.

DB Electrics handles every aspect of the replacement – from the initial assessment and quote through to installation, testing and certification. All consumer unit installations are fully compliant with BS 7671 wiring regulations and come with a full electrical installation certificate on completion.
