Common Questions

You likely need an upgrade if your board uses old rewirable fuses, lacks RCD protection, is over 25 years old, or has been flagged by a surveyor or mortgage lender. Many Morningside Victorian villas still have outdated fuse boards.

Most Morningside consumer unit upgrades are completed in a single day. Larger Victorian villas with more circuits may take slightly longer — we'll give you an accurate estimate when we quote.

Yes — pre-sale consumer unit upgrades are one of our most common jobs in Morningside. We can upgrade your board quickly and issue the required Electrical Installation Certificate to keep your sale moving.

Yes — we carry out EICR testing across Morningside and Edinburgh. If your consumer unit upgrade reveals wider wiring issues, we can carry out a full EICR and any required remedial work.

An RCD protects groups of circuits — a fault on one could trip multiple circuits. An RCBO provides individual protection for each circuit. RCBO units are generally preferred in larger Morningside properties where minimal disruption from any single fault is important.

Yes — we recommend fitting a Type 2 SPD when upgrading your consumer unit. It protects all connected devices from voltage spikes and is a relatively small additional cost.

Yes — we cover all of Morningside EH10 and surrounding areas including Bruntsfield, Marchmont, Newington and Colinton. Call us to confirm your specific postcode.
