That starting price buys the fuse board change, not a fixed total for every house. - Fuse box replacement (consumer unit upgrade): from £650 - JD Electricals puts the Oakley consumer unit price in writing before the fuse board is fitted. - A house rewire from £4,800 is a different job, used when the cables are being replaced as well as the board. ## Fuse board replacement in Oakley JD Electricals replaces fuse boards in Oakley for homeowners and landlords, fitting a consumer unit, the modern fuse board, from £650. ### When the old fuse box still has fuses A rewireable fuse box in an Oakley house is replaced with a consumer unit so circuits sit on breakers instead of fuses. ### When there is no spare way for extra circuits If the Oakley board has no spare ways, a new consumer unit is the job before extra kitchen, shower or socket circuits. ### When the cables can stay and only the board needs changing Keep the cables and replace the fuse board from £650; a full house rewire in Oakley starts from £4,800. ### When the board trips and the fault is not known Fault finding from £75 per hour traces the fault; replacing the Oakley fuse board is a separate job from £650. ### When you let an Oakley house and need it tested Landlords can have the consumer unit upgraded from £650 and an EICR, the landlord electrical safety certificate, from £150. ## Fuse boards in Oakley houses Oakley houses range from older village property around Oakley Lane and Church Acre to 1960s and 80s estate homes on the river and Scottish named closes, and that mix changes how a new consumer unit is fitted. ### Older village houses on Oakley Lane and Church Acre Village houses on Oakley Lane and Church Acre have been added to over decades, so one board may feed original and later rooms. ### 1960s to 80s homes on Glamis Close and Kings Orchard 1960s to 80s homes on Glamis Close and Kings Orchard often have the original board in a hall or garage cupboard. ### River named closes such as Medway Avenue Estate houses on Medway Avenue from those decades may have the meter and fuse board together on the original intake wall. ### Andover Road, Barn Lane and Malshanger Lane Andover Road, Barn Lane and Malshanger Lane mix village houses with later additions, so each live circuit needs a way on the new board. ### Oakley on RG23 west of Basingstoke Oakley is a Hampshire village on RG23, a couple of miles west of the RG22 base, and JD Electricals covers fuse board work there. ## What happens on the day The electrician arrives at your Oakley home, isolates the mains, fits the new consumer unit and tests each circuit before handing over the paperwork. ### Arrival and isolation On arrival the electrician checks the existing fuse box, meter position and circuits with you, then isolates the supply. ### Fitting the new consumer unit The old fuse box comes out and the new consumer unit is fitted, with each Oakley circuit connected to its own breaker. ### Testing and paperwork Every circuit is tested on the new board and you are left with the electrical paperwork for the consumer unit upgrade. ## Why customers choose JD Electricals Oakley homeowners and landlords get written prices for fuse board replacement from £650, careful testing on the new consumer unit, and straightforward communication through to the paperwork. JD Electricals is a domestic electrical company covering Oakley with the other Hampshire towns around Basingstoke. ## Recent work from JD Electricals Photographs of JD Electricals work show domestic jobs for homeowners and landlords across Basingstoke and the surrounding Hampshire towns, not Oakley fuse boards alone. ## Fuse board replacement questions in Oakley Fuse box replacement in Oakley starts from £650, covers the named village streets, and is booked as planned consumer unit work rather than an emergency call out. ### How much does a fuse board replacement cost in Oakley? Fuse box replacement, a consumer unit upgrade, starts from £650 for an Oakley home. That is a starting price, not a fixed total for every house. JD Electricals puts the figure in writing before the board is fitted. ### Do you replace fuse boards on Oakley Lane and Glamis Close? Yes, JD Electricals replaces fuse boards in Oakley, including Oakley Lane, Church Acre, Glamis Close, Medway Avenue, Kings Orchard, Andover Road, Barn Lane and Malshanger Lane. The work is for homeowners and landlords on those streets. Coverage of a street is not a record of a job already done there. ### Do I need a full rewire or just a new fuse board in Oakley? A new consumer unit from £650 is the job when the cables in the Oakley house are staying in use and only the board is being replaced. A full house rewire starts from £4,800 when the wiring itself is being replaced. JD Electricals prices those as separate jobs. ### Can an EV charger go in after the Oakley fuse board is changed? A 7.4kW home charge point starts from £750 and needs spare capacity on the consumer unit. Fuse board replacement from £650 is the job that adds those ways when the old Oakley box has none. The charger is priced separately from the board. ### Is a new fuse board the same as an emergency electrician in Oakley? No. Fuse board replacement from £650 is planned consumer unit work. The emergency electrician service is from £90 per hour, and fault finding is from £75 per hour if the board is tripping and the cause is not yet known. The booking line answers any time, which is not the same as an electrician attending at every hour. ### What happens after I book a fuse board replacement in Oakley? Once you book, JD Electricals confirms the Oakley visit and the written price for the consumer unit upgrade. The electrician then attends, isolates the supply, fits the board and tests the circuits. The paperwork for that upgrade is left with you at the end of the visit. ### I am a landlord in Oakley. Do I still need an EICR if the board is new? An EICR, the landlord electrical safety certificate, starts from £150 and is a test of the installation, not the same job as fitting a new consumer unit from £650. JD Electricals carries out both for landlords in Oakley. They are booked and priced as separate pieces of work. ### Do the maintenance plans change the Oakley fuse board price? Bronze takes 5% off labour and certificates, Silver 10% off labour and certificates, and Gold 15% off labour and certificates, against the fuse box replacement starting price of £650. Bronze and Silver include a free safety certificate once a year; Gold includes free safety certificates three times a year, same day priority booking and two emergency call-outs a year. The plan does not turn the £650 starting price into a fixed total. ## Oakley streets JD Electricals covers JD Electricals covers fuse board replacement in Oakley on village streets such as Oakley Lane and Church Acre, estate closes including Glamis Close, Kings Orchard and Medway Avenue, and Andover Road, Barn Lane and Malshanger Lane. ## Rewires, chargers and testing in Oakley House rewiring from £4,800, kitchen rewiring from £1,600, EV charger installation from £750 and EICR testing from £150 are booked separately from an Oakley fuse board replacement. - [Electrician in Oakley](https://jd-electricals.co.uk/electrician-oakley): Electrician in Oakley near Basingstoke for EICRs, consumer units and rewiring, with the exact property and connected buildings confirmed. - [Consumer unit replacement (all areas)](https://jd-electricals.co.uk/services/fuse-board-replacement): JD Electricals replaces fuse boards in Basingstoke from £650.
