Still got an old-style fusebox?

If your consumer unit has rewireable fuses, no RCD protection, or hasn’t been updated in 20+ years, it may not meet current UK safety standards.

Here are 3 signs it could be time for an upgrade:

🤯Your electrics trip regularly
❗You still have ceramic fuses
✅ You’re planning renovations or adding an EV charger

A modern consumer unit significantly reduces the risk of electric shock and fire and gives you peace of mind.

If you’re unsure what you have, send us a photo and we’ll happily advise.

What is an EICR?

An EICR is essentially an MOT check but for your electrics. You wouldn't drive a car without an MOT so why take that risk with your eclectics?

What do EICR codes actually mean?

When an EICR is completed, observations are coded to reflect risk:

C1 – Danger present
Immediate risk. Needs urgent action.

C2 – Potentially dangerous
Not immediately dangerous, but could become so.

C3 – Improvement recommended
Not unsafe, but doesn’t meet current standards.

FI – Further investigation required
More checks needed to confirm safety.

👉 Only C1, C2, or FI make a report unsatisfactory.

A C3 doesn’t mean your electrics are unsafe — just that standards have moved on or that improving is recommended.

A good electrician will explain these clearly, not just hand over a report.
