Grangetown homeowners looking to install solar panels, battery storage or EV chargers often need electrical upgrades to ensure their property can safely support the additional load. GL Solar's NAPIT-approved electricians carry out consumer unit replacements, cable upgrades, earthing improvements and EICR inspections across Grangetown, Riverside and the surrounding south Cardiff area.
Grangetown features a mix of Victorian terraced homes, post-war council houses and newer developments near the bay. Many of the older properties in Grangetown still have original or ageing electrical installations that do not meet current BS 7671 standards. Before connecting solar inverters, battery systems or EV chargers, these properties often need consumer unit upgrades, cable capacity increases and earthing improvements.
We provide free electrical assessments for Grangetown homeowners as part of our solar and battery installation service. Our electricians thoroughly inspect your existing installation during the survey, checking consumer unit capacity, cable sizes, earthing arrangements and overall safety. Any required upgrades are quoted upfront with a fixed price — no hidden costs.
Beyond electrical work for renewable energy, GL Solar offers standalone electrical services across Grangetown — including EICR inspections, consumer unit replacements, additional circuits and full rewires. All work is completed to BS 7671 standards by NAPIT-approved electricians, with full certification and Building Control notification.
