Garages and outbuildings often run off a single socket from the house, which is inadequate for modern workshops, home gyms or EV charging. Our garage consumer unit service installs a dedicated sub-distribution board in your garage with its own RCD protection, allowing you to safely run multiple circuits for power, lighting, heating and EV charging.

How It Works

Our Process

01

Survey & Load Calculation

02

Cable Installation

We install SWA armoured cable underground or overhead, properly protected and buried to the correct depth.

03

Consumer Unit & Circuits

A garage consumer unit is installed with separate circuits for sockets, lights, EV charger and any other requirements.

04

Testing & Handover

All circuits are fully tested and you receive certification for your records and insurance.

FAQ

Common Questions

Can I run an EV charger from my garage consumer unit?

Yes. We install dedicated EV charger circuits with the correct capacity and RCD protection for safe overnight charging.

How deep does the cable to the garage need to be buried?

SWA cable buried in the garden needs to be at least 500mm deep with warning tape above it. We follow this standard on every job.

Will a garage consumer unit trip my house RCD?

No. We design the installation so garage faults are contained by the garage RCD and do not affect your main house supply.
