Fuse Board Upgrades for Wapping
Your consumer unit (also known as a fuse board or fuse box) is the heart of your home's electrical system. It distributes power to every circuit in your property and contains the protection devices that cut power in the event of a fault or overload. An outdated fuse board — particularly one with rewirable fuses or no RCD protection — leaves your property significantly less protected.
KLIC ELECTRICAL upgrades consumer units across Wapping and the rest of East London, replacing old fuseboards with modern, fully-labelled 18th Edition units with RCD or RCBO protection on every circuit. Every upgrade is Part P certified and completed with full testing — typically in a single day.

Why Your Old Board Needs Replacing
Signs You Need an Upgrade
Fire Risk
Old rewirable fuse boards and boards without RCD protection are a leading cause of electrical fires. Modern consumer units dramatically reduce this risk.
Insurance
Many home insurers now require a modern consumer unit with RCD protection. An outdated board may invalidate your buildings and contents insurance.
Regulations
Consumer unit replacement is notifiable under Part P. As NICEIC Approved Contractors, we self-certify all work — no council inspection required.
EICR Failure
A failed EICR with C1 or C2 codes often requires a consumer unit upgrade. We carry out the upgrade and re-test — issuing a new Satisfactory EICR.

Yes. Consumer unit replacements in domestic properties are notifiable under Part P of the Building Regulations. As NICEIC Approved Contractors, we self-certify all work directly with Building Control — at no additional cost to you. This applies to all properties in Wapping E1W.
A dual-RCD board splits your circuits into two banks, each protected by one RCD. If the RCD trips, you lose all circuits on that bank. A fully-RCBO board gives every circuit its own breaker and RCD protection — so a fault affects only that circuit. RCBO boards offer superior protection and convenience, and we recommend them for most installations in Wapping.
Yes — a failed EICR with C1 or C2 codes often requires a consumer unit upgrade as part of the remedial works. We carry out the upgrade, complete all required remedial work, and re-test the installation — issuing a new Satisfactory EICR certificate on completion. We cover all of Wapping E1W for this service.
