Not every breaker board is modern
Plastic consumer units from before 2016
Plenty of village homes had a consumer unit fitted in the 1990s or 2000s, and owners often assume it is up to date because it has breakers rather than fuses. Since 2016, new boards in homes have had to be housed in a non-combustible enclosure, usually steel, and many older plastic units also lack RCD protection on some circuits.
An older plastic board is not automatically dangerous, but it is often the weak point when we test. Replacing it brings you a metal enclosure, RCD cover on every circuit and Type 2 surge protection. A full RCBO board for a typical cottage starts at £625.
- Steel enclosure to current rules
- RCD cover where it was missing

When a new board trips and the old one never did
Village houses that have been extended, reconfigured and rewired a room at a time can hide wiring faults that an old fuse box simply ignored. Two lighting circuits sharing a neutral, a damp outdoor socket or a nail through a cable may never blow a fuse, yet they will trip a modern RCD at once. The new board is not faulty; it is finally noticing.
Because we test every circuit before handing over, these problems are found while we are still on site. We trace them, explain what we have found and fix the simple ones on the day, so you are not left with a board that trips every evening.
- Shared neutrals traced
- Damp outdoor fittings found
- Insulation resistance tested
- No tripping left unexplained

Stedham questions
Asked in Stedham
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Fuses only respond to overloads and short circuits, while an RCD also detects current leaking to earth or returning by the wrong route. Faults such as shared neutrals, damp fittings or damaged insulation can sit unnoticed for years behind fuses. We find them during testing, so they are dealt with before we leave, not after.
For most households, yes. On a dual RCD board, costing from £425, a single fault may cut power to half the home. An 8 way full RCBO board, from £625, switches off just the circuit at fault, so the cause is far easier to track down. The difference is most noticeable in homes with freezers, alarms or someone working from home.
Rarely. A straight board change is done at the existing position, and testing is carried out from the board and the outlets in each room. We may need to unscrew a few sockets and light fittings to check them, and we refit them afterwards. Floorboards only come up if a fault has to be traced and you agree first.
