Why Upgrade Your Consumer Unit in Blackpool?

Blackpool has a large stock of older properties — many still fitted with outdated plastic fuse boards or rewirable fuse units that offer no RCD protection. Since 2016, all new consumer units in domestic properties must be housed in non-combustible metal enclosures. Modern consumer units with RCD or RCBO protection can detect dangerous faults and cut the power in milliseconds, potentially saving lives. If your board is old, plastic and unprotected, an upgrade is strongly recommended. ESI Electrical upgrades hundreds of consumer units across Blackpool every year.

Consumer Unit Upgrades for Landlords in Blackpool

Since April 2021, all private rental properties in England must have a valid EICR. Many older Blackpool properties fail due to inadequate consumer units — old plastic boards, missing RCD protection or insufficient circuit protection. We work with landlords and letting agents across all Blackpool postcodes (FY1–FY4) to upgrade fuse boards and issue the required certificates, keeping properties compliant and tenants safe. We can manage multiple properties and issue all certificates promptly.

RCBO Consumer Units — The Best Protection for Blackpool Homes

Standard consumer units use RCDs that protect groups of circuits — if one circuit trips, it takes out all circuits on that RCD. RCBO consumer units protect each circuit individually, so a fault on one circuit only trips that circuit. This is far more convenient and provides better protection. We recommend RCBO boards for all new installations and upgrades across Blackpool, particularly for HMOs and larger properties where circuit isolation is important.
