Thetford's mix of post-war housing and older town-centre properties means many homes still have outdated fuse boxes without RCD protection. A consumer unit replacement is the most effective single safety upgrade for these properties, bringing them up to current BS 7671 standards with full circuit protection.
Consumer Unit Replacement for Thetford Properties
In Thetford's older properties around the town centre and King Street, we frequently find fuse boxes with rewirable fuses and no residual current protection. The post-war and 1960s housing across the town typically has boards that were adequate when installed but now fall short of current safety requirements. We replace both types efficiently, usually within a single day.
