With National Moving Day approaching on August 19, the NICEIC is encouraging homeowners to ensure their electrics meet modern expectations. Paul Collins, technical director at NICEIC, said: "Homebuyers are becoming much more conscious of what’s behind the scenes. "A beautifully decorated home can quickly lose its appeal if buyers discover outdated electrics or realise they’ll need to invest in major upgrades after moving in. Replacing an old fuseboard with a modern consumer unit also improves safety and demonstrates that the property meets current electrical standards. There are more than 40,000 NICEIC-registered electricians in the UK, all regularly assessed to ensure they meet current regulations.
