Family homes, changing needs
Older wiring, newer appliances
We will not claim The Thorne has a single style of house, and the details of each property matter more than any label. What we can say is that older homes anywhere tend to have boards installed before induction hobs, powerful showers and heat pumps were common, with too few ways and little or no RCD protection for the way a household lives now.
When we fit the new consumer unit we look at what each circuit is actually feeding today. A cooker circuit put in decades ago may now be supplying a much larger appliance, so we check that the cable size and the protective device match before anything is switched back on.
- Circuits matched to today's appliances
- Cooker and shower cables checked
- Spare ways for future additions
- Every circuit tested and recorded

Planning a new kitchen or bathroom?
An induction hob usually needs its own radial circuit, often 32 amps, and an electric shower may need 40 or 45 amps. Refit a kitchen or bathroom in The Thorne and those circuits have to come from somewhere, yet older fuse boxes seldom have a suitable spare way or the RCD protection the regulations now expect.
The sensible order is board first, then kitchen. We can fit the consumer unit before your fitter arrives, with ways set aside and labelled for the hob, oven and shower, so the new appliances connect straight in. A dual RCD 10 way board is £495, or full RCBO from £625.
- Ways reserved for hob, oven and shower
- Board in before the fitters arrive
- RCD protection for bathroom circuits

Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Not necessarily. The hob may be connected to a cable or fuse sized for an older cooker, or sharing an RCD with other circuits whose small leakages add up. We test the circuit, check the cable size against the hob's rating and fit the right protective device. Only if the hob itself shows a fault would we suggest calling its maker.
Yes. We can leave clearly labelled spare ways for the new circuits and certify the board as installed. When the kitchen goes in, the new circuits must be installed, tested and certified, either by us or by the electrician working with your kitchen fitter. We will tell you which route is simpler for your project.
No. A shower's temperature depends on its power rating and the water flow, not on the board. What a new board does is protect the shower circuit properly, with RCD protection and a breaker matched to the cable. If you are upgrading to a more powerful shower, we check whether the existing cable can safely carry the extra current.
