At Alesta Services, we specialize in professional fuse box replacement, ensuring that your home or business is safe, compliant with current regulations, and functioning optimally. The fuse box (also called a consumer unit) is the heart of your electrical system, and it’s essential that it works correctly to prevent electrical faults and potential hazards.
Comprehensive Inspection and Assessment
The first step in our fuse box replacement service is a detailed inspection of your existing electrical system. Our certified electricians assess the condition of your current fuse box, wiring, and overall electrical infrastructure. This evaluation ensures that the new installation will be compatible with your home’s electrical needs and adheres to safety standards.
Removing and Replacing the Fuse Box
Once the inspection is complete, we proceed to safely remove the old fuse box. Our team ensures that the power is fully isolated to prevent any accidents during the process. After removal, we install the new consumer unit, ensuring it meets the latest UK electrical regulations. We use only high-quality, industry-approved fuse boxes that offer enhanced safety features, including Residual Current Devices (RCDs) and Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs) for better protection against electrical overloads and short circuits.
Testing and Certification
After the new fuse box is installed, we carry out comprehensive testing on your electrical circuits to ensure everything is functioning properly. This includes checking all wiring connections, ensuring that RCDs and MCBs operate correctly, and confirming that the system can handle the electrical load in your home. Once the testing is completed, we provide you with a certificate that confirms the safety and compliance of your electrical system.
At Alesta Services, we prioritize safety, professionalism, and customer satisfaction. Our team of electricians is fully certified and experienced in handling all types of fuse box replacements across London, ensuring you receive a reliable and efficient service.

Replacing a fuse box, also known as a consumer unit, is a critical upgrade for both safety and electrical efficiency. In London, the time and cost for replacing a fuse box can vary based on several factors, such as the size of the property, the complexity of the existing wiring, and the condition of the overall electrical system.
Average Cost of Fuse Box Replacement in London
The average cost for replacing a fuse box in London typically ranges between £400 and £800, including parts and labour. Here’s a breakdown of what influences the pricing:
Property Size and Number of Circuits: Larger homes with more circuits will require a more complex fuse box and additional work, increasing the overall cost. Smaller properties with fewer circuits will generally be on the lower end of the price range.
Condition of Existing Wiring: If the existing wiring is outdated or faulty, additional work may be required to upgrade or repair the wiring, which can add to the cost.
Additional Safety Features: Newer fuse boxes are equipped with advanced safety features such as Residual Current Devices (RCDs) and Miniature Circuit Breakers (MCBs). While this makes your home safer, it can also affect the price, depending on the features included.
How Long Does Fuse Box Replacement Take?
The typical fuse box replacement process usually takes between 4 to 6 hours. This timeline includes:
Inspection and Power Isolation: Before any work begins, a detailed inspection of the existing system is conducted, followed by isolating the power to ensure safety. This process typically takes about an hour.
Removal and Installation: The old fuse box is removed, and the new one is installed. This can take between 2 to 3 hours, depending on the complexity.
Testing and Certification: Once the new fuse box is installed, it undergoes thorough testing to ensure all circuits are functioning correctly. This takes an additional 1 to 2 hours, and a certificate is provided to confirm compliance with UK safety regulations.
At Alesta Services, we ensure the process is smooth, efficient, and adheres to the highest safety standards.
