Good to know

Common questions

General guidance about electricians in the UK, not specific to any one business.

What is the difference between fuses and circuit breakers?

Fuses melt and break when overloaded, requiring replacement. Circuit breakers automatically switch off and can be reset. Modern consumer units use circuit breakers as they are safer and more convenient.

How often should PAT testing be done?

Frequency depends on equipment type and workplace environment. Office equipment typically needs testing annually. Items in harsh environments may need more frequent testing. A qualified tester can advise on requirements.

Can I install my own light fitting?

Simple replacement of existing fittings on existing circuits may be possible for competent individuals. Any new circuits, modifications to wiring, or work on unfamiliar systems should be done by a qualified electrician.

What should I do if my electrics keep tripping?

First check if an overloaded circuit caused the trip by unplugging appliances. If tripping continues when circuits are empty, stop using that circuit and call an electrician to identify the fault.

Is rewiring disruptive to a property?

Full rewiring involves running cables through walls, which requires chasing out channels or lifting floorboards. This creates dust and disruption. Wall decoration will be needed afterward. Extent depends on property layout.

What's involved in an electrical safety certificate?

An electrician tests circuits, checks earthing and bonding, and inspects the consumer unit and fittings. If safe, they issue an Installation Condition Report. This is essential for lettings and property sales.
