​

Are there additional costs?

If you have more than 10 circuits (fuses) there will be an extra cost of £25 per additional circuit.

 

It may be necessary for your 'Electricity Supplier' to install a 'Main Isolation Switch' prior to any work.  I will advise you if this is the case and they will charge you separately.

 

If you have a 'Main Earth Rod' just outside your house, it may also need to be upgraded.  I will advise you if this is the case.  If needed, there will be an additional charge of around £80.

​

If there are no bonding cables (green & yellow cables) currently going to your gas meter and mains water stop-tap, these may need to be installed.  I will advise you if this is the case.  The cost varies between £20 - £180 depending on distance.

​

All existing circuits must be tested for safety before being reconnected to the new fuse box.  If there are any circuits which cannot legally be reconnected, I will fully explain the situation and advise you on available options along with fixed prices for you to consider.

​

You will never incur additional costs without first knowing exactly how much they will be and specifically agreeing to them.

​

Do I need a replacement fuse box?

Your fuse box is the main safety device for your electrical system.  It is advisable to have a fuse box that is installed by an experienced electrician and complies with current regulations, in order to provide you with the best levels of protection for your home and your family.
