Fuseboard upgrades in Leeds

Modern Consumer Unit Installations By NICEIC Registered Electrcians

A modern fuseboard, also known as a consumer unit, is one of the most important safety features in any property. Older fuseboards often lack RCD or RCBO protection, meaning they may not meet current UK electrical safety regulations and can increase the risk of electric shock or fire. Upgrading to a modern consumer unit improves electrical safety, reliability and compliance for homes and landlords across Leeds.

At BRO Electrical, our NICEIC registered electricians carry out professional fuseboard upgrades and consumer unit replacements throughout Leeds and surrounding areas. We replace outdated fuse boxes with fully compliant modern consumer units designed to protect both your property and the people in it, providing full testing and certification with every installation.

We take the time to inspect your existing electrical installation, explain your options clearly and ensure all work is completed to the latest UK wiring regulations. Whether you are renovating, purchasing a new property, installing new appliances or simply want peace of mind that your electrics are safe, we provide honest advice and free no-obligation quotes for fuseboard upgrades in Leeds and nearby areas.

Burning smells, buzzing or crackling sounds
Scorch marks or visible heat damage
A wooden backboard behind the fuseboard
Your fuseboard is 20–25+ years old
You’ve added new appliances, extensions or EV chargers

What Do our Fuseboard Upgrades involve?

Existing Fuseboard Inspection

We begin by checking your current fuseboard and wiring to assess safety, capacity and compliance with current electrical regulations.

New Consumer Unit Installation

Your old fuseboard is safely removed and a modern consumer unit is professionally installed with updated wiring and protective devices.

Electrical Testing and inspection carried out on a domestic fuseboard by a qualified electrician in Leeds

Electrical Testing & Certification

All circuits are fully tested to ensure everything is safe, correctly labelled and operating as it should before completion.

Final Checks & Clean Finish

We tidy the area, fit the cover, apply safety labelling and leave your new fuseboard fully compliant and ready for use.

Surge protection (SPDs) for your fuseboard

All of our fuseboard upgrades include surge protection as standard. This helps protect your home from unexpected voltage spikes caused by lightning strikes, power outages or grid fluctuations. Installing surge protection reduces the risk of damage to TVs, computers, appliances and other valuable electronics, giving homeowners and landlords added peace of mind from day one.

New fuse box, wiring and cabling, new shower switch.

Tom was upfront about all work needed to be done and all priced up with no hidden costs. Work done on dates agreed. Kevin who is Tom’s sidekick was a very hard worker and a polite guy. Tom was equally the same and someone who is proud of his work.

Fuse board change

Tom came out to us within the day after a call to him regarding our fuse board. Tom solved the issue and fitted us with a new fuse board straight away and the job was completed promptly and cleaned and tidied afterwards. Will be using him again and recommending to everyone.
