Scope and installation plan for consumer unit replacement

Before installation is booked, registered electrical delivery, likely scope, downtime and handover are clarified so the next step is clear.

Serving Brent, wider NW London, and selected West London postcodes. Send your postcode and a couple of photos for a clear first answer.

This is the point where the replacement plan stops being vague. Photos, postcode and the reason for replacement help confirm whether the next step is a written replacement quote, another first check, or a wider discussion before installation is booked.

What a clear plan usually covers

  • Confirm why the board is under review and whether replacement still looks like the right next step.
  • Explain registered electrical delivery, the written quote and likely downtime before dates are discussed.
  • Set expectations on testing, labelling and paperwork so the handover is not left vague.

What can change the scope

  • Heat damage, poor previous work, missing information or wider installation issues can change the final scope.
  • Final details still depend on what is confirmed on site and through testing.
  • If the scope changes, that should be explained before work moves beyond the agreed plan.
