CU replacement

What testing should be undertaken when replacing a CU?
Should the property have a EICR before the replacement is carried out?

    This begs the question, "why do you want to change the CU? Surely it must be on the recommendation of an EICR.


    Consider a homeowner who looks at their rewireable fuse board and wants a consumer unit, with CBs, just like they've seen elsewhere , so they don't have to fiddle with bits of fusewire - and don't know anything about eicrs.
