Consumer Units

Protecting Your Home's Electrical System

At Expert Electrical, we take pride in offering a comprehensive range of high-quality consumer units that are not only functional, but also fully compliant with the latest 18th Edition of the Wiring Regulations, including Amendment 3. These consumer units, also known as fuse boxes, are the heart of your home's electrical system, ensuring safe and reliable power distribution.

Whether you're building a new property, upgrading an existing installation, or simply replacing an aging consumer unit, our selection of 18th Edition consumer units has you covered. With a wide variety of sizes and configurations, ranging from 2 to 45 useable ways, we cater to the diverse needs of homeowners, landlords, and electrical contractors alike.

The Rise of FuseBox: A Leading Brand in Consumer Unit Solutions

One of the standout brands in our consumer unit offering is FuseBox. As a relative newcomer to the industry, FuseBox has quickly established itself as a trusted name, setting new standards in safety, performance, and affordability.

Our most popular FuseBox consumer unit comes equipped with a T2 surge protection device (SPD) and a robust 100A mains switch, providing comprehensive protection against power surges and overloads. This level of protection is further enhanced by the option to add RCBOs (Residual Current Circuit Breakers with Overload) or MCBs (Miniature Circuit Breakers) to the outgoing circuits, ensuring your home is safeguarded against a wide range of electrical hazards.

Staying Ahead of the Curve: 18th Edition Compliance and Amendment 3

The 18th Edition of the Wiring Regulations, published in 2018, introduced a range of changes to improve the safety and efficiency of electrical installations. Amendment 3, which came into effect in January 2023, further refined these regulations, ensuring that all new consumer unit installations meet the latest industry standards.

At Expert Electrical, we pride ourselves on staying ahead of the curve. All of our consumer units are fully compliant with the 18th Edition of the Wiring Regulations, including the latest Amendment 3 updates. This means that when you choose one of our consumer units, you can have confidence that your electrical system is equipped with the most up-to-date safety features and protection measures.

The Importance of Comprehensive Circuit Protection

A well-designed consumer unit is the foundation of a safe and reliable electrical system. By incorporating features such as SPDs, RCBOs, and MCBs, our consumer units provide a multi-layered approach to circuit protection, safeguarding your property and its occupants from a range of electrical hazards.

Surge protection devices (SPDs) safeguard your home against power surges, which can be caused by lightning strikes, faulty appliances, or grid-level disturbances. RCBOs, on the other hand, monitor for any imbalances in the electrical current, quickly disconnecting the supply to prevent the risk of electric shock or fire.

Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) are another crucial component, acting as the first line of defense against overloads and short circuits. By automatically cutting off the power supply when a circuit is overloaded, MCBs help to prevent damage to your electrical equipment and reduce the risk of fire.
