When it comes to fuse box upgrades, Elec-sat Manchester is here to lend you a hand with its team of
skilled electricians. Old houses mostly have age-old wiring system and now-obsolete fuse boxes
which function poorly to provide enough power supply to latest devices. Even more, these fuse
boxes are hardly equipped with electrical safety switches (MCBS,RCBO & RCDS).
Outdated fuse boxes are highly prone to short-circuits. Their fuses are more harmful as those fuses
tend to catch and spread fire easily. Also there are chances of electrical shock with these old fuse
boards. Now, if you want to have peace of mind and safety in your home then a new consumer unit
upgrade is necessary. The RCD electrical safety switch, available these days with the latest Consumer
Units, makes it sure that you do not get electric shock or no serious physical damage occurs due to a
fire breakout. An RCD or RCBO safety switch shuts down the main power supply as soon as it senses
the slightest hint of any power leakage from a broken wire or switch within 40ms.
Few decades ago, your household was not furnished with tons of electrical appliances or devices. In
those days, just a heater, chimney, refrigerator and oven used to do it all. So a better fuse box
installation was not required. But now you have computer, cooler, vacuum cleaner, dryer, washing
machine, stereos, fitness equipments, microwaves, pumps, home theatres, central room
temperature controlling system and many more.
If you experience frequent power tripping, then it’s most likely that your electrical equipments are in
need of a fuse box upgrade. Older fuse boards are designed to supply power to a small number of
kitchen or household appliances. Last but not the least, you will get the opportunity to easily restore
power with the new MCBs or Rcbo installed in newer Consumer Units if you ever have an electrical
fault. Remember Elec-sat Manchester is always there to help.
