Why upgrade your consumer unit
Is Your Home’s Electrical Heart Still Beating Safely?
Modernize your home with a certified Consumer Unit upgrade from Everyday Elec. We bring Halesowen homes up to the latest 18th Edition safety standards.
More Than Just a Fuse Box
Your consumer unit is the most important safety device in your home. If you still have an old-style "rewireable" fuse board or a unit without Surge Protection, your family and your sensitive electronics are at risk.
Signs you need an upgrade:
Frequent Tripping: Your current board can't handle modern appliances.
Plastic Enclosure: Older plastic boards are a fire risk; modern units are high-grade non-combustible steel.
No RCD Protection: You lack the life-saving technology that prevents fatal electric shocks.
New Technology: Preparing for Solar PV, Battery Storage, or an EV Charger.
