Is your board holding you back?
Old distribution boards are one of the most common reasons for an unsatisfactory EICR. Obsolete fuse boards, boards without RCD protection, overloaded or damaged boards and boards with no spare ways all hold a business back.
We replace boards with modern units sized for your loads, with proper RCD and surge protection, clear circuit charts and room to expand. The changeover is planned in detail, usually out of hours, so the power is off for the shortest possible time.
Planned changeovers, minimum downtime
After a failed EICR
If your EICR flagged the board, we'll quote to replace it and clear the related observations in one go.
Room to grow
New boards are sized with spare ways so future circuits, EV chargers or machinery can be added without another upgrade.
Short shutdowns
We prepare everything in advance, so the actual changeover is quick, and we can provide temporary supplies for critical equipment.
