data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">A distribution board or supply upgrade is a significant piece of electrical work, and it is worth being properly informed before you proceed.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-b9e60f8 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"b9e60f8\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">For commercial and industrial premises, the existing electrical infrastructure should be thoroughly assessed before any upgrade is specified. The upgrade needs to be designed around the actual and anticipated electrical loads of the site, with appropriate spare capacity built in. Undersizing a new distribution system is a common mistake that leads to further works being required sooner than expected.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7748edf elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"7748edf\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">For supply upgrades involving an increase in the incoming supply capacity, the process involves coordination with the relevant Distribution Network Operator as well as the internal works carried out by LC Electrical. Timescales for supply upgrades can be longer than for distribution board replacements alone, and this is worth factoring into project planning. We will advise clearly on the process and likely timescales when we carry out the initial assessment. \n\nFor domestic properties, a consumer unit replacement is notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations. As NICEIC-registered contractors, we self-certify and handle all required notifications on your behalf.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4924247 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4924247\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">During the upgrade works, there will be a period during which the electrical supply to the building is interrupted. For commercial and industrial clients, we plan the works carefully to minimise the duration and impact of any supply interruption, and where possible schedule the work outside of operational hours.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-d1a5a05 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"d1a5a05\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">At LC Electrical Installations, we carry out a thorough assessment of your existing installation and electrical demands before specifying any upgrade, ensuring the solution we design is properly sized, compliant, and built to serve your needs for the long term.<\/p>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-edbc63a elementor-align-left elementor-widget elementor-widget-button\" data-id=\"edbc63a\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"button.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a class=\"elementor-button elementor-button-link elementor-size-sm elementor-animation-bob\" href=\"tel:01895751638\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-content-wrapper\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<span class=\"elementor-button-text\">Get In Touch<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/span>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-256e290 e-flex e-con-boxed e-con e-parent\" data-id=\"256e290\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\" data-settings=\"{&quot;background_background&quot;:&quot;classic&quot;}\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"e-con-inner\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-566ac1a e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"566ac1a\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-00b9f65 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"00b9f65\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-1f7589d e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"1f7589d\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-e15e233 elementor-widget elementor-widget-image\" data-id=\"e15e233\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"600\" height=\"530\" src=\"https:\/\/lc-electrical.dev.silvertoad.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/img-54.png\" class=\"attachment-large size-large wp-image-1010\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/lc-electrical.dev.silvertoad.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/img-54.png 600w, https:\/\/lc-electrical.dev.silvertoad.co.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/img-54-300x265.png 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-ee8e927 e-con-full e-flex e-con e-child\" data-id=\"ee8e927\" data-element_type=\"container\" data-e-type=\"container\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-11b88c2 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"11b88c2\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h1 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">Why Choose LC Electrical Installations?<\/h1>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-67cd430 elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"67cd430\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-default\">At LC Electrical Installations, we approach distribution board and supply upgrades with the technical rigour and attention to detail these projects demand.
