Consumer unit replacement in Whitchurch
Fuse board replacement in Whitchurch gives older period houses a new consumer unit, with cables run around original features rather than through them.
“Most of my work is domestic: consumer units, full and partial rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. I test and certify everything I fit, and anything else I find while I am there gets priced separately rather than added quietly to the bill. The electrician who quotes your job is the one who does it.”

How much does a fuse board replacement cost in Whitchurch
Fuse box replacement, a consumer unit upgrade, is from £650 in Whitchurch. That starting price is for the new board, the testing and the installation certificate.
- Identifying circuits that were added in layers can add time on period houses.
- Running cables around original features, rather than through them, can add time before the board is switched back on.
Fuse board replacement in Whitchurch
- A fuse board replacement in Whitchurch is a new consumer unit in your house, tested and certified, from £650.
- Period Whitchurch houses have often been altered many times, so one consumer unit has to serve original rooms and later ones.
- Period Whitchurch houses had wiring added over time rather than installed in one go, so the new board has to map every circuit.
- Cables are run around original features rather than cut through them.
Period houses around Church Street and Bell Street
- Period and older houses around Church Street and Bell Street have been altered many times, so a fuse board change follows the wiring as it stands today.
- Period houses on Newbury Street have often been altered many times, so one board serves original rooms and later additions.
- Wiring on Winchester Road was often added in layers, so every circuit is identified before the new consumer unit is fitted.
- Original features on London Street mean cables are run around them, not through them, when the new consumer unit is connected.
What happens on the day
Power is isolated first, then the new consumer unit is fitted, then you leave with the installation certificate.
- 01
Isolating the power
The electrician arrives, isolates the power, and identifies every circuit on the existing board before it comes out.
- 02
Fitting the new consumer unit
The new consumer unit is fitted and circuits added over the years are landed on their own ways, with cables run around original features.
- 03
Testing and the certificate
Each circuit is tested and you are left with the installation certificate for the new consumer unit.
Work that is not a fuse board replacement
An EICR from £200 checks the condition of the installation rather than changing the board. A kitchen rewire from £1,600 or a house rewire from £4,800 is the job when the cables need replacing, and fault finding from £65 an hour traces a live fault.

Fuse board replacement questions
Period Whitchurch houses can have a new consumer unit without cutting original features, from £650.
How much does a fuse board replacement cost in Whitchurch?+
Fuse box replacement, a consumer unit upgrade, is from £650. That starting price buys the new board, testing and the installation certificate. Identifying layered circuits or running cables around original features can add time, and extra work is a separate price.
— James Dunn
Do you replace fuse boards in period houses in Whitchurch?+
Yes, JD Electricals replaces fuse boards in period and older Whitchurch houses as well as later ones. Those homes have often been altered many times, so the new consumer unit is mapped to the circuits that are there now. Original features stay, with cables run around them.
— James Dunn
Will original features be cut to fit the new board?+
No. Cables are run around original features, not through them. That can add time on older houses around Church Street. Extra time of that kind is priced on its own, not folded into the £650 starting figure in silence.
Do I need a full rewire as well?+
Only if the cables cannot stay. A house rewire is from £4,800 and a kitchen rewire from £1,600 when those are the jobs. Anything found during the fuse board change is priced separately.
What certificate do I get after the board is changed?+
You get the installation certificate for the new consumer unit. A minor works certificate is from £95 when the job is smaller than a full board change. An EICR, the landlord electrical safety certificate, is from £200 when you need a condition report rather than an upgrade certificate.
Who turns up to do the work?+
The electrician who quotes the job is the one who attends. James Dunn's domestic work is consumer units, rewires, lighting and EICRs on houses around Basingstoke. Extra finds are priced separately.
Have you already done fuse boards on Newbury Street?+
Newbury Street and London Street are areas JD Electricals covers in Whitchurch, not a list of finished fuse board jobs. James Dunn's quoted domestic work is consumer units on houses around Basingstoke. Fuse board replacement in Whitchurch is from £650.
