Here is a few reasons to consider.
1. Increased safety: With the installation of Residual Current Devices (RCDs), the consumer unit can detect and trip the power supply if it senses an imbalance in the electrical current. This helps to protect against electrocution and fires, making your home a safer place for you and your family.
2. Protection against power surges: An Spd (Surge Protection Device) protects your home from power surges due to lightning strikes, power outages or circuit faults. It can prevent damage to your appliances, electronics and other sensitive equipment, thus saving you money on repairs and replacements.
3. Compliance with new regulations: The 18th Edition Wiring Regulations make it mandatory to have RCD protection in all domestic installations. By upgrading your consumer unit to include RCDs, you will be complying with these regulations and ensuring that your property is up-to-date with the latest safety standards.
4. Better performance: A modern consumer unit with RCD technology and Spd protection provides better overall performance, especially during power outages and electrical faults. You can enjoy uninterrupted power supply and stay protected against any unforeseen electrical hazards.
5. Energy efficiency: Upgrading your consumer unit can also lead to better energy efficiency, allowing you to save money on your energy bills in the long run. By installing RCDs and Spd devices, the risk of electrical faults and related energy wastage is minimized, ultimately leading to cost savings.

In March 2023, a cost-effective and minimally disruptive front garden lighting project was undertaken in Magham Down. The aim of the project was to provide stylish and functional lighting to enhance the exterior aesthetics of the property.
The project utilized energy-efficient LED lights strategically placed to illuminate various features of the front garden, including walkways, trees, and plants. These lights were carefully selected to create a warm and welcoming ambiance while minimizing glare and light pollution.
The installation was carried out in a careful and precise manner, ensuring that no major disruption was caused to the property or its surroundings. The lighting fixtures were mounted on sturdy, weather-resistant posts that were firmly secured into the ground, ensuring long-lasting durability.
Overall, the front garden lighting project in Magham Down was a success, providing an elegant addition to the property while remaining within budget and causing minimal disturbance to the area. The result of this project is a beautiful and inviting outdoor space that can be enjoyed safely and effectively throughout the year.
Recently had an emergency call out in Five ashes to restore someone’s power after the fire services were called as the consumer unit was smoking. What’s more concerning is the place was only tested a year ago and installed 2 years prior. It’s true loose neutrals cause fires
Had a nice garden lighting job this week in Hellingly East Sussex. Upgraded the existing garage supply to a 5 way consumer unit and installed a 4 channel wise box leaving a couple of spare channels to add onto in the near future. The couple were a real pleasure to work with on this one completely understanding that some times jobs take longer than expected sometimes. Also nice to be working closer to home
