Consumer Unit Upgrades in Overton
Smart Choice Sparks provides consumer unit upgrades in Overton, Hampshire.
Period rural properties in Overton often have fuseboards that have been in place for decades — sometimes serving converted outbuildings or barns as well as the main house. Smart Choice Sparks replaces outdated units with modern RCD-protected consumer units sized to cover the full installation.
Overton is a historic village on the upper River Test, known for its working watermill and a traditional brick-built high street of Georgian and Victorian buildings, with a mix of period and more recent housing that often requires EICR inspection and rewire work. A properly specified consumer unit serving both the main house and any outbuildings simplifies the installation and improves protection across the whole site.

A consumer unit (also called a fuse box or fuseboard) is the distribution point for all the electrical circuits in your home. Older units use rewirable fuses or early MCBs without RCD protection. A modern unit uses RCDs and MCBs together, which provide much faster disconnection in a fault and greatly reduce the risk of electric shock or fire.
Yes. Your supply is isolated at the meter while the new unit is installed and circuits are reconnected. Power is restored once testing is complete — usually on the same day.
Not always, but if your EICR comes back with the existing unit flagged as a C2 (potentially dangerous) or C1 (dangerous) item, a surveyor or buyer's solicitor may request the work is completed before exchange. Matthew can advise on the condition of your existing unit.
