Consumer units for the home, renovation
or smaller property — without chaos

Need a new consumer unit, replacement of an old one or extra circuits? We do it so the panel is safe, clear and ready for the future — whether you are only renovating now, or later planning solar, EV charging or a heat pump.

Consumer unit for a home renovation – clearly arranged protection and clean installation

A consumer unit should give confidence, not cause stress

For most homeowners, this is not about technical jargon. It is about having a consumer unit that makes sense in real life. It needs to be safe, clear, ready for the actual load in the property and not stand in the way of future expansion.

Clarity instead of chaos

Clear labelling and sensible circuit logic mean that during a fault, service visit or later upgrade, the consumer unit is not a puzzle but a reliable and readable foundation.

Proper protection and safe load distribution

We design the consumer unit to match how the property is actually used. What matters is load separation, protection and the way the panel connects to the rest of the electrical installation.

Reserve capacity for the future

When you think ahead today, you do not need to rebuild the panel tomorrow because of extra circuits, EV charging, solar or the next stage of your renovation.

When it makes sense to deal with the consumer unit

In most cases, this is not simply “a new panel,” but a specific real-world situation in the property. These are the typical moments when it makes sense to deal with the consumer unit properly.

Home or apartment renovation

The old consumer unit is no longer enough for new appliances, an updated kitchen, bathroom or a new circuit layout. We design the logic so the result is not a patchwork of improvisation.

  • new circuits
  • proper protection
  • prepared for inspection

An old or confusing consumer unit

Missing labels, overcrowded modules or a panel that nobody understands. We turn that chaos into a clear, reliable foundation that can still be serviced years from now.

  • clear labelling
  • safe load distribution
  • better serviceability

Preparing for solar, an EV charger or a heat pump

When future technologies are considered too late, the consumer unit often gets rebuilt twice. We leave sensible reserve capacity and plan the space and logic ahead of time.

  • reserve capacity in the panel
  • ready for added technologies
  • fewer future alterations

What we can solve for you

Depending on the scope, we can go from a simple replacement all the way to a consumer unit as part of a larger renovation or new installation. The perspective always stays residential: function, clarity and future usability.

Replacement of an old consumer unit

For panels that are outdated, confusing or no longer match how the property is actually used today.

  • removal and reconfiguration based on the real condition of the property
  • new breakers, RCDs and surge protection where needed
  • clear circuit labelling and documentation for future checks

New consumer unit for a new build or major renovation

A clean electrical foundation for a home, apartment, garage or smaller property without future compromises.

  • sensible circuit layout based on real everyday use
  • prepared for future expansion and additional technologies
  • clear handover without chaos inside the panel

Modifications and upgrades to an existing consumer unit

When you do not need to rebuild everything, but you do need more capacity, better logic or improved protection.

  • additional circuits, modules and protection devices
  • upgrades during a kitchen, bathroom, workshop or garage renovation
  • prepared for an EV charger, solar, a heat pump or other new loads

How we think about consumer units in practice

No unnecessary technical theatre. A consumer unit should work in real life, stay readable and not make future service or later stages of the property more complicated.

A consumer unit you will still understand years later

A consumer unit is not just a box full of breakers. It is a part of the home that should make sense in everyday use, during servicing and whenever an inspector or another electrician needs to work with it. That is why we focus on logical circuit layout, clear labelling and clean installation.

  • clearly labelled circuits and components
  • sensible load distribution without unnecessary compromises
  • clean installation with future servicing in mind

Not just for today. We also think about what you may add later

Most people add new technologies step by step: first a renovation, then perhaps solar, EV charging, a heat pump or smarter controls. When this is considered during the design of the consumer unit, you avoid unnecessary rebuilds and duplicated costs later on.

  • reserve space for extra modules and circuits
  • prepared for solar, EV charging and related technologies
  • a sensible base for future stages of the home or property

When you need more than just breakers fitted into a cabinet

A consumer unit is connected to design, assembly, installation and follow-up service. That is why it helps to have the option to continue to more detailed pages if you already need project-level support or want a unit built to specification. For most homeowners, though, we always start simply: what should the panel actually do, and how should it work in real life?

  • clear consultation without unnecessary theory
  • option to continue with consumer unit design documentation
  • option to continue with custom consumer unit manufacturing

Need to go deeper?

This page is the residential entry point. If you already need more detailed technical support or want to deal with the panel on a deeper level, you can continue to two dedicated pages below.

Consumer unit design

For situations where you need a more systematic design approach, technical logic and a better long-term plan.

Consumer unit manufacturing

For cases where you are ready to solve the actual build, assembly and handover of a custom unit.

How the cooperation works

No unnecessary back and forth. From the first contact to the final handover, you know what we are solving, why we are solving it and where the whole process is heading.

1

Short consultation

You tell us whether you need a new consumer unit, replacement of an old one or an extension. Photos of the current setup and a short description of the property are ideal.

2

Logic and scope proposal

We propose what should stay, what should change and where reserve capacity makes sense. The goal is a safe, clear result, not an overcrowded panel with no future.

3

Solution and quotation

You receive a clear proposal and price range based on the scope. No unnecessary technical clutter and no hidden compromises.

4

Installation or upgrade

We build, install or modify the consumer unit according to the agreed scope. The emphasis is on clean work, proper labelling and clear circuit logic.

5

Handover and next steps

We explain the consumer unit in a clear, human way. Where needed, we can continue with related electrical work, more detailed design or custom manufacturing.

Frequently asked questions

When does it make sense to replace the whole consumer unit, and when is an upgrade enough?

That depends on the age, capacity and overall condition of the panel. If the consumer unit is overcrowded, confusing or no longer matches the actual electrical load of the property, full replacement often makes sense. If the core is still usable, an upgrade or extension may be enough. After a short consultation, we will tell you honestly what is worth doing and what no longer is.

Do you only handle consumer units for family homes, or also for apartments and smaller properties?

We work on apartments, family homes, garages, workshops and smaller properties as well. On the residential side, our focus is always the same: the consumer unit should match the real way the property is used and remain clear for both the homeowner and future service work.

Can you modify a consumer unit for solar, an EV charger or a heat pump?

Yes. These technologies often require additional circuits, protection devices and spare capacity inside the consumer unit. We prepare the panel so future upgrades are not improvised or unnecessarily expensive.

Will the consumer unit be clearly labelled?

Yes. We care a lot about clear labelling. A consumer unit should still make sense to someone who did not install it. That helps with everyday use, troubleshooting and inspections.

Can you help even if nobody currently knows what is what inside the consumer unit?

Yes. That is a very common situation in older homes and apartments. We first map the real condition, then propose a safe and logical solution. The goal is to stop the panel from being a black box full of surprises.

Can the consumer unit be prepared so it can be expanded later?

Yes. Thinking ahead makes a lot of sense with consumer units. We leave sensible reserve capacity based on what the property may realistically need over time. That helps avoid unnecessary rebuilds during later renovation stages or when new technologies are added.

Do you also replace old fuse boards or outdated, confusing consumer units?

Yes. We often deal with old or confusing panels. We design a new foundation, circuit layout and protection so the final result matches the way the property is actually used today.

Do I need a design project, or can this be solved without one?

That depends on the scope. For smaller residential jobs, a consultation, photos and a site visit are often enough. When more detail is needed, we can continue with proper consumer unit design documentation and prepare the technical basis systematically.

Can you also continue with related electrical work elsewhere in the house?

Yes. A consumer unit is often not a standalone topic, but part of a wider renovation or extension of the electrical installation. We can therefore continue with related electrical work so everything functions as one coherent system.

How quickly can you tell me what actually makes sense to do?

The fastest option is to send photos of the consumer unit, a short description of the property and what is changing. Based on that, we can quickly estimate whether you mainly need an upgrade or already need a new panel and recommend the next step.

How much does a new or upgraded consumer unit cost?

The price depends mainly on the number of circuits, the scope of the work, the protection devices used and whether it connects to other electrical work. The exact figure depends on the real scope, but after an initial consultation we can give you a clear price range and recommend the option that makes the most sense.

Which areas do you cover?

Primarily Ostrava, Frýdek-Místek, Havířov and nearby areas in the Moravian-Silesian Region. Other parts of the Czech Republic can be arranged depending on the scope of the project.
