Consumer unit upgrade How Much Does It Cost To Install a New Consumer Unit in Your Home or Premises Here is a guide to installation of a new consumer unit and what should be considered before you have any works carried out at your home. Installation of a new consumer unit There are many reasons to upgrade your consumer unit, maybe your existing unit is of the old rewire able fuses type (and is giving you constant headaches) or maybe you have a more modern type of consumer unit but you have no RCD (Residual Current Device) protection present in your property – more on that later.

Installing Shower Cabling Orrell Electrics have attended several faulty shower circuits in the last few weeks whilst on emergency call outs, all with the same outcome. Our emergency electricians repeatedly reported seeing this issue reoccuring. The cable used to feed the showers has been too small, too many people install 6mm twin and earth when the correct cable should be 10mm twin and earth for the size of the shower in question. Anything below 7.5 Kw is fine for a 6mm cable but above that rating and you need to install 10mm ie a 9.5Kw shower. At first the cable will be fine but over time as the cable is unable to deal with the load it will deteriorate and usually in the process the first signs are a faulty shower pullcord or switch as seen below Notice how the insulation has completely melted away from the copper, this is caused by the cable getting extremely hot as it is not able to handle the current passing through it. You should always examine ...

Orrell Electrics - Electricians Liverpool and Merseyside area NICEIC approved electrical contractors Recently we carried out an inspection and test on a well known public house in Liverpool City Centre, the installation was six years old and had been carried out by an electrical contractor and had been issued with an NICEIC certificate. There were several major problems found on the installation which were very dangerous, the main problem being someone had tampered with the incoming supply and had decided to change how the pub was supplied from a three phase supply to a single phase supply, see images below: So the whole installation was running off a single phase, this includes 4 consumer units and the whole of the kitchen, this type of work could have caused some serious electrical problems and possibly worse could have caused a fire as the cable could have melted/overheated. Also found was a supply for the fire alarm which was fed off the main incoming...

The last couple of days we have been carrying out an installation in a coffee/wine bar in the city centre of Liverpool. The business is under new ownership and is currently having a refurbishment to which we have totally rewired the premises. The main thing I wanted to show is the vintage lighting , there are two chandeliers from a bygone age and they are stunning, they really compliment the feel of the establishment. See the images below The pictures I took on my iphone do not do the lights justice! The lighting is spectacular and really showcases the business, Tony and Alan the business owners have ploughed a lot of time and effort (and expense!) into the property and when finished it will be stunning!! The bar is called McGuffies and is located on Castle Street, they will be stock a fine selection of guest ales and of course all of us at Orrell Electrics will report back after sampling the beverages! Had a really busy week with lots of work coming i...

Orrell Electrics NICEIC approved electricians based in Liverpool We are emergency electricians and offer a 24 hour call out service. Today I attended an property to quote for an installation of four outside sockets, from the time I had entered the front door and made it to the back of the house I had spotted several faults within the property. One of the biggest faults I spotted and made the customer aware of was no protective bonding conductor the water at the stopcock, in essence the metallic pipework of the property was not earthed which would be classed as a Code 1 on a electrical installation condition report. The customer talked through his requirements and where he would like the sockets positioned. He wanted me to feed off a single socket in the living room and feed the sockets outside, the socket was very old and showing signs of ageing. Next I asked the tenant to show me the consumer unit, the consumer unit was the old Wylex re-wireable fuses (BS3036...

Today we attended a customer's home to carry out an electrical installation condition report , the installation was less than three years old and had been wired to the 17th edition IEE wiring regulations BS7671. There was no certification supplied with the original installation and the customer was quite anxious about this, lucky for him it was one of the best decisions he could have made as some of the things found were alarming, we are experienced emergency electricians and deal with electrical issue in Liverpool on a daily basis. We were shocked by some of the things we encountered, one of the protective bonding conductors to the main water stopcock was on the incoming side of the stopcock instead of the outgoing side, in essence the pipework of the installation was not protected in the event of a fault. Secondly the protective bonding conductors had been cut at the gas meter instead of a loop, so in effect if one connection became loose the pipework was exposed to a f...
