Electrical Panel Installation in Șcheia

About this service

The consumer unit is the heart of any electrical installation in a home or commercial space: every circuit runs from it, and it houses the protective devices that stop a short circuit or overload before it can start a fire. Installing a consumer unit involves correctly sizing the circuit breakers against the connected loads, selecting appropriate residual current devices, grouping circuits for sockets, lighting, and heavy appliances, making the neutral and earth connections, clearly labelling every circuit, and carrying out final testing with specialist instruments. A licensed electrician calculates the installed load, checks the cross-section of existing conductors, and installs a board that complies with wiring regulations and the utility provider's requirements. Whether you're replacing an old fuse board, wiring a new house, or adding circuits for a boiler or an EV charging point, SmallJobs connects you with licensed electricians with real reviews and competitive rates.

What to check before hiring a electrical panel installation

Choose components from established manufacturers; the price difference is small relative to the risk
Insist on a 30 mA RCD being fitted, even if the old installation didn't have one
Ask for every circuit to be clearly labelled and for a board schematic at handover
Check that each major appliance — hob, oven, boiler, air conditioning — has its own dedicated circuit
Request the test certificate with insulation resistance and earth electrode measurements
Don't accept oversized breakers as a fix for repeated tripping — the cause must be identified

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need a licensed electrician?

Yes. Work on the consumer unit and the installation must be carried out by a licensed electrician. Licensing matters both for safety and for situations where documentation is needed for the energy supplier, for insurance, or when selling the property. Ask for the licence number and verify it.

What is an RCD and why do I need one?

A residual current device detects current leaking to earth — including through a person's body — and cuts the supply within milliseconds. A 30 mA RCD is the standard protection for homes and is mandatory in modern installations, particularly for bathroom and kitchen circuits.

Why do my breakers keep tripping in Șcheia?

The most common causes are overload — too many appliances on one circuit — a short circuit in an appliance or socket, moisture in a junction box, and sometimes an undersized or worn breaker. An electrician in Șcheia identifies the problem circuit through testing and determines whether a simple adjustment or a resized board is needed.

Can I replace a breaker myself?

It isn't advisable. Even though the operation looks simple, working in the board requires correctly identifying the circuit, choosing a rating matched to the cable cross-section, and tightening connections to the right torque. An oversized breaker lets the cable overheat without tripping, which is exactly the scenario that starts fires.

What does it mean that my board is undersized?

It means the number of circuits or the rating of the protective devices no longer matches your actual appliances. Many homes built decades ago have 4–6 circuits, insufficient for a washing machine, electric oven, hob, air conditioning, and boiler. The result is repeated tripping and overheating connections.

Does the wiring need replacing when I replace the board?

Not always. If existing circuits have adequate cross-section and the insulation is sound, a new board can be fitted to the existing wiring. The electrician will measure insulation resistance first, though, and if values are poor or the cables are old aluminium, the correct recommendation is to rewire.
