Just been quoted £300 parts and labour to replace an old fuse box with
a new consumer unit. Is this a reasonable quote? The parts are only
about £50 but I believe the new part-p regulations prevent me doing
the work.


we had a discussion on this a while ago, and worked out that the
paperwork got completed in less than 1% of such jobs. The important
question is are you competent.

Its also worth mentioning that fuseboxes do get replaced with no good
reason many a time.

Another vague unsubstantiated comment from NT. To put my mind at rest, would
electrical credentials do you have ??
