Newport homeowners and businesses installing solar panels, battery storage or EV chargers frequently require electrical upgrades to ensure safe and compliant operation. GL Solar's NAPIT-approved electricians provide consumer unit replacements, cable upgrades, earthing improvements and full EICR inspections across Newport and the surrounding Gwent area.
Newport's diverse housing stock — from Victorian terraces in Pill and Maindee to 1960s estates in Gaer and Malpas, and modern developments on the city's outskirts — presents a wide range of electrical installation ages and conditions. Our electricians carry out detailed assessments during the free survey to identify any necessary upgrades before connecting solar inverters, battery systems or EV chargers.
We provide fixed-price quotes for all electrical upgrade work in Newport, with clear explanations of what is required and why. Common upgrades include consumer unit replacement (many Newport homes still have old fuse boards), cable capacity increases for solar inverter connections, additional circuits for battery systems and EV chargers, and earthing improvements to meet current BS 7671 standards.
GL Solar also offers standalone electrical services across Newport — from EICR inspections and consumer unit replacements to full property rewires. Our local team serves all Newport postcodes with fast response times, competitive pricing and the peace of mind that comes from NAPIT-approved, fully certified electricians.
