Hi,

I have a distribution box inside a cupboard. I would like to have it replaced with a better brand (its currently a Wickes own brand) and a model that is embedded in a wall.
I would also like to have the feed extended to have it installed on a different wall of the same cupboard. The various cables from each circuit breaker would need to be fed to the new location.

I haven't had electrical work done before so would like to ask the electricians amongst you as to roughly how much I need to set aside to be able to get this done?

thanks,
Derek

It really is too difficult without photos and being able to determine cable re-routing Derek.

It might need a complete rewire but might need a partial or might be able to fit all existing cable if they are long enough /pass by the new position? How long is the new position from the meter?

Decent pictures go a little way to us getting a better idea.
