What can I do with a plastic consumer unit

Harry Macdonald 5 months ago

This installation has received a C3.

I am tempted to do nothing as an electrician has quoted about £600 to replace the lot with a board full of RCBOs.

Is there a simple way of improving the fire rating?

Ah! A nice tidy bit of work. C3 seems fair, but I wouldn't change it.

Agree. There's a lot of ill-informed panic nonsense bandied about over plastic consumer units.
