    These are houses and flats being rented out with the tenants paying to live in a safe and comfortable homes, it is not at all unreasonable to expect landlords to update electrical installations that were installed over twenty years ago, I doubt may installations have an average spend of £50 per year maintaining the actual fixed installation, many even less.

    Which really is absolutely negligible, but it more than enough to pay for an upgrade with a new consumer unit after twenty years.
