Fuse Board Replacement in Reading

Safe, Modern Fuse Board Replacement for Reading Homes

Fuse Board Replacement

Older Fuse Boards

If your home still has an old fuse box or you’re experiencing electrical issues, upgrading to a modern consumer unit is one of the best ways to improve safety. We provide professional fuse board replacement services in Reading, installing new, fully compliant consumer units that offer far better protection and reliability.

Whether your current board is outdated, overloaded or failing, our qualified electricians ensure a safe, tidy and fully certified installation.

If you notice frequent tripping, buzzing sounds, old-style fuses or a lack of RCD protection, it may be time to upgrade.

Why Replace Your Fuse Board?

Older fuse boards were not built for the demands of modern homes. Many Reading properties—especially those built before the 1990s—still have outdated systems that lack vital safety features.

A fuse board replacement offers:

  • Improved protection against electric shock

  • Faster response to faults and overloads

  • Reduced risk of electrical fires

  • RCD/RCBO safety devices as standard

  • Better support for modern appliances and EV chargers

  • Full compliance with current BS 7671 regulations
