Good to know
Common questions
General guidance about electricians in the UK, not specific to any one business.
What is the difference between rewiring and upgrading a fuse board?
A fuse board upgrade replaces only the main control panel with a modern unit. Full rewiring replaces all cables and wiring throughout the property. Rewiring is more disruptive but necessary if original wiring is unsafe or inadequate.
Can I add a socket or light anywhere in my home?
Most locations are possible but walls containing pipes or cables may be restricted. Solid walls need chasing out, which is more labour-intensive. Partition walls are easier. Always identify what's in the wall before starting work.
How often do portable appliances need PAT testing?
Frequency depends on appliance type and environment. Office equipment typically needs annual testing. Heavily used or hired equipment may need 6-monthly checks. Manufacturers' guidance and workplace risk assessment determine the schedule.
Can an EV charger be installed on a terraced house?
Yes, if there is a dedicated parking space directly outside with power supply access. Shared driveways or communal parking make installation difficult or impossible. Ground conditions and cable routing must be assessed.
Will rewiring damage my walls and plasterboard?
Walls are chased out to run new cables, creating grooves that are then filled and redecorated. This causes disruption and means replastering and repainting are needed. Surface-mounted trunking avoids wall damage but is more visible.
Why might an old fuse box need replacing?
Old fuses lack the safety features of modern circuit breakers. They cannot cope with modern appliance demands, trip frequently, and pose fire risk. Many mortgage lenders and insurers now require modern boards in older properties.
