Safety Checks
New Fuseboard Installations
in Faringdon
When there’s a problem with a fuseboard it needs a professional qualified electrician to diagnose the problem. It may be that your circuits are tripping all the time or you may have noticed a burning smell or burn marks on the fuseboard, our local Faringdon electricians are professionally competent and 18th Edition IET qualified.
A fuseboard should have two important features, a main switch (which allows you to turn off the electricity in an emergency) and Residual Current Devices (RCD) which are switches that trip a circuit which has become dangerous, preventing electrical shocks and fires. Older fuseboards do not have RCD devices, these devices are required so that a circuit is dangerous.
We have installed many electrical fuseboard upgrades in Swindon homes, replacing hazardous old fuseboards which lack RCD protection, we have also installed new fuseboards (Consumer Units) in Swindon homes that require more electrical circuits to be able to use more electrical appliances.
We carry out electrical work and fuseboard replacements in the SN7 postcode areas and the surrounding areas including Watchfield, Shrivenham and Great Coxwell.
