Project overview
About this project
Following an Unsatisfactory EICR, Daddy Electrician Ltd returned to carry out essential remedial electrical works at this property. The inspection identified several issues requiring urgent attention, including exposed live copper at the consumer unit, an undersized main earthing conductor, a non-fire-rated plastic fuse box, socket circuit faults, damaged and loose electrical accessories, and concerns with lighting points and fittings. To improve the safety and condition of the installation, our electricians completed a programme of remedial works tailored to the EICR observations. The work included: Replacing the existing plastic consumer unit with a new metal consumer unit✅ Making safe and upgrading the connections associated with the consumer unit✅ Replacing outdated socket outlets and light switches✅ Investigating faults found on the socket circuits✅ Repairing faulty socket connections and improving circuit reliability✅ Removing and replacing unsuitable or damaged light fittings✅ Installing new light fittings and completing associated electrical connections✅ Testing the upgraded installation and completed remedial works✅ The original EICR also highlighted loose accessories, unsuitable circuit arrangements and lighting concerns. These types of issues can increase the risk of electric shock, overheating or unreliable operation if they are not investigated and repaired correctly. A consumer unit upgrade is more than simply changing a fuse box. It gives us the opportunity to improve protection, organise and label circuits correctly, and address defects identified during an electrical safety inspection.
