Cost to replace consumer unit
Discussion
I have the current consumer unit from 2002 shown here and need to add a couple of sockets to the cupboard it's in for my upcoming fibre broadband install. Unfortunately the sparky identified that there's no RCD on this board and advises that they are not manufactured anymore.
Because I'm in a high rise any new board needs to have AFDD as well as RCD on all socket circuits, so once he confirmed the building height he revised his guesstimate (he hasn't seen it in person yet) price from £750 up to £1210 for a full new consumer unit.
Is this about the right price for a work of this type?
