How to tell if your consumer unit (fuse box) needs updating

Basically, if it has old fashioned rewire-able fuses rather than MCB’s (trip switches), it needs replacing!
The next thing to look at, if it’s not a candidate for “Antiques Roadshow” is,- does it have a test button?
If so – press it! All the power in the house should go off immediately. If it doesn’t, the RCD is faulty.
Most house fires are caused by electrical faults.
A new fully compliant consumer unit can be supplied and installed for as little as just £295

Q: Why do I need a chargepoint; can’t I just use a 13A plug?
A: Using a 13A socket to charge your car can take up to 30 hours. Drawing this amount of current on a continual basis can put too much strain on some wiring systems and can be dangerous and create a fire hazard. The use of extension leads from a 13A plug is definitely not recommended as this can overheat under the continual load. This is why it is not recommended by government and car manufacturers.
Our units are wired directly into your home’s consumer board (fuse box) and therefore do not overload your home’s ring main.
Our qualified surveyors assess each installation individually, ensuring that the appropriate unit and correct cabling is always used. This means your charging point is as efficient as it can be, and completely safe to charge for long periods of time
