Old Fuse Boxes in Woodbridge Homes
Wood Electrical LTD, a team of electrical contractors based in Ipswich, covers consumer unit replacement in Woodbridge and the rest of East Anglia. A consumer unit with rewireable fuses and no RCD protection is the usual reason to replace one, and in England the change is notifiable work under Part P.
What is involved in a consumer unit upgrade in Woodbridge?
The consumer unit, still called the fuse board by most people, is where every circuit in the house starts. Rewireable fuses and missing RCD protection are the commonest reasons to replace one. Scorch marks, a warm casing or a crackling sound mean isolate and call rather than wait.
A replacement is notifiable work under Part P in England, with testing of each circuit before the supply is restored. Fuse board replacements are Wood Electrical LTD work, along with the circuit breakers and sub circuits behind them.
How long does it take an electrician to replace a consumer unit?
In a typical home it is usually a day's job or less, with the power off for several hours of it. Testing every circuit afterwards is part of that time. Faults found during testing can add time, because the new board cannot be left live on a faulty circuit.
What is cable containment?
Containment is the system that carries and protects cables through a building: trays, conduit, ladder and trunking. It protects the wiring from mechanical damage and the environment.
Well laid containment pays off every time somebody has to add to the system, with clear, accessible runs that allow for more cable. Commercial containment is Wood Electrical LTD work, planned around the building's layout.
What is the best way to find a good electrician?
Look for three things: registration with a scheme such as NICEIC, proper insurance, and a clear explanation of what the job involves before it starts. Wood Electrical LTD meets the first two as a NICEIC Approved Contractor with a fully insured team.
Who oversees the quality of each job?
Wood Electrical LTD employs a team of experienced, skilled electrical engineers, every one of them fully qualified. A Qualified Supervisor with more than 25 years of hands on experience is responsible for the quality, safety and compliance of every project.
On site the team is led by a Supervisor with over 12 years of electrical commercial electrician in Stowmarket experience. Project delivery is overseen by a Contracts Manager qualified in fire and safety installation. That structure is what keeps a large job and a small one to the same standard.
Wood Electrical LTD covers Woodbridge and the rest of East Anglia, with an emergency line open 24/7. The number is 07727 055015 - one call reaches Wood Electrical LTD.
