Fuse Board Installation
The cost of installing a new fuse board is included in our electrical installation pricing, along with an Electrical Installation Certificate. Rest assured, the fuse board provided will fully comply with current electrical regulations—there are no hidden fees or extra charges.
Important Note:
We install new fuse boards exclusively as part of a complete electrical installation. This policy ensures the safety, reliability, and compliance of the entire electrical system. Upgrading a fuse board without addressing outdated or faulty wiring can create risks, as the new board may expose underlying issues in the existing wiring.
By installing a fuse board only alongside new wiring, we guarantee that the entire system meets modern standards and delivers optimal performance and safety for your property.
