Good to know

Common questions

General guidance about electricians in the UK, not specific to any one business.

What is a fuse board and why might it need replacing?

A fuse board (consumer unit) is the central point where electricity enters a property and is distributed to circuits. Old units with rewireable fuses are less safe and less reliable than modern circuit breakers. Replacing an old board improves safety and capability.

Can I add sockets anywhere in my home?

Sockets can be added to most walls, but there are rules about positioning (distance from water, kitchen counters) and limits on the number of sockets per circuit. Cables must be run safely through walls, sometimes requiring surface conduit if drilling is not possible.

What should I know before having an EV charger installed?

The property electrical supply must be assessed to ensure it can handle the charger. Most homes need a separate circuit to the consumer unit. Installation typically requires digging a trench if the charger is away from the house, which affects cost and timescale.

Why is PAT testing important for a workplace?

PAT testing verifies that portable appliances are safe to use and haven't developed faults that could cause electric shock or fire. Businesses have a legal duty to maintain appliances in safe condition, and testing provides documentary evidence of this.

What happens if an old light fitting is removed and a heavier one installed?

The ceiling must be able to support the weight. Standard ceiling fixings may not hold a heavy chandelier or pendant. A specialist may need to install reinforced fixings or a proper ceiling brace before the new fitting can safely be hung.
