I have recently decided to collect some quotes to update my knackered old fuse board to a split load RCD consumer unit. Prices are coming back fairly satifactorily, but I've been told on multiple quotes that in order to install the unit, it must be ascertained that the existing wiring complies with BS7671 prior to installation.
Can anyone give me an idea of what this entails? The wiring in the property was done circa the mid eighties, prior to my purchase, and, although I've never had a single problem, does look decidedly DIY.
I really don't want this to escalate into a full rewire!
