Following a change in safety regulations at the turn of the year, you may need to take a new look at the electrical fusebox in your house.
Any domestic fusebox now has to be made of metal if and when it is newly installed. This is due to fire safety concerns about the plastic ones used until now. So if you are undertaking a rewiring project or a renovation of a property then you might need to install a new fusebox at the same time.
Director of Abbeyhill Electrical Services, Kenny Cummings, said : “If we test any property then a plastic fuse board has to be flagged up with a strong recommendation that it will need to be replaced in due course.
“And if any property refurbishment includes rewiring then the fuse board needs changed. We are happy to inspect any property and offer our professional advice and guidance on what is needed.”
The Cumming brothers took over the business in 2015, when they acquired it from the previous owner. The business is going through a rebranding and modernisation process, including a refit of their office at East Norton Place.
Look out for Abbeyhill’s newly rebranded cars and vans!
