How do I know if I need to upgrade my consumer unit?
Signs that you may need an Consumer unit (Fuseboard) upgrade include frequent breaker trips, flickering lights, a consumer unit that feels warm to the touch, renovation or addition of high-power appliances, or if your consumer unit is over 25 years old and has no additional protection in the form of a RCD for special location circuits.
What is a RCD outlet and where do I need them in my home?
A residual-current device (RCD) outlet is a safety device designed to shut off power if an imbalance between incoming and outgoing current is detected, which helps prevent electric shock. RCD are required in all areas with a higher risk of water contact, such as bathrooms, kitchens, laundry rooms, outdoor areas, and garages.
The UK standard for safety – Since July 2008 virtually all circuits in new or rewired homes have been required to include an RCD under the latest edition of BS 7671.
Why do my lights flicker at home?
Flickering lights can be caused by a variety of issues, ranging from simple bulb problems to more serious electrical faults. It could be due to loose bulbs, voltage fluctuations, faulty switches, or an overloaded circuit. If the problem persists, it’s best to have an electrician investigate to ensure safety and proper functioning.
Can I install a new light fixture or outlet by myself?
While some DIY enthusiasts may feel comfortable with basic electrical tasks, it’s generally recommended to hire a licensed electrician for any electrical installations. This ensures that the work is done safely and in compliance with local codes and regulations. Plus, based on our experience, being electrocuted is a sensation you should avoid!
How often should my home's electrical system be inspected?
It’s a good idea to have a professional electrician inspect your home’s electrical system every 5-10 years. However, rental properties should be checked and inspected every 5 years, or following a change of tenancy.
What should I do if an outlet isn't working?
First, check to see if other outlets are affected or if the circuit breaker has tripped. If it’s an isolated issue, avoid using the outlet and contact an electrician to diagnose and repair the problem, as it could be a sign of faulty wiring or a more serious issue.
How can I save on my electric bill?
To save on your electric bill, consider energy-efficient lighting, such as LED bulbs, using smart power strips, upgrading to Energy Star appliances, installing a programmable thermostat, and having an electrician conduct an energy audit to identify further savings opportunities.
Are smart home devices worth the investment?
Smart home devices can offer convenience, enhanced security, and energy savings. Devices like smart thermostats, smart lights, and energy monitors can help you better manage your energy usage and can be a worthwhile investment in the long run.
What is the difference between a fuse and a circuit breaker?
Both fuses and circuit breakers serve as safety devices to prevent electrical overloads. A fuse will melt and need to be replaced when overloaded, while a circuit breaker can be reset after tripping due to an overload or short circuit.
