Fuse Board Upgrades in Cork

Cork Solar & Electrical replace outdated fuse boards and consumer units in homes across Cork City and County Cork. An old fuse board — particularly one with ceramic fuses or no RCD protection — is a serious safety risk and may leave your home uninsurable or non-compliant with current standards.

We replace old fuse boards with modern dual RCD consumer units that fully meet current ETCI wiring regulations. The work is typically completed in a single day with minimal disruption. We isolate the power, remove the old unit, install the new consumer unit, test all circuits, and issue your Electrical Installation Completion Certificate on the same day.

Fuse board upgrades are also required when adding EV chargers, solar panels, electric showers or additional circuits. If your board is full or outdated, contact us today for a free assessment and written quote.

Why Upgrade Your Fuse Board?

An outdated fuse board is one of the most common electrical hazards in Irish homes. Here is why an upgrade may be essential for your property.

Protect Your Home

Old fuse boards with ceramic fuses or no RCD protection cannot safely handle the demands of a modern home. An upgrade eliminates shock and fire risks and ensures every circuit is properly protected under current regulations.

Meet Insurance Requirements

Many home insurers now require a modern consumer unit with RCD protection. A fuse board upgrade with a Completion Certificate can resolve insurance issues, support mortgage applications and prepare a property for sale.

Enable Future Upgrades

Adding an EV charger, solar system or electric shower requires a spare circuit and a consumer unit with sufficient capacity. A new unit ensures your home can accommodate these additions without further electrical works.
