Rhiwbina homeowners installing solar panels, battery storage or EV chargers often need electrical upgrades to ensure safe and compliant operation. GL Solar's NAPIT-approved electricians carry out consumer unit replacements, cable upgrades, earthing improvements and EICR inspections across Rhiwbina, Birchgrove and the surrounding north Cardiff area.

Rhiwbina features a charming mix of 1920s and 1930s semis, bungalows and some post-war properties, many of which have electrical installations dating back several decades. Properties along Heol Llanishen Fach, Wenallt Road and in the village centre often still have old fuse boards and undersized cables that cannot safely support modern solar inverters, battery systems or EV chargers without upgrading.

We provide free electrical assessments for Rhiwbina 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 and overall safety. Any required upgrades are quoted upfront with a fixed price — no surprises, no hidden costs.

Beyond electrical work for renewable energy, GL Solar offers standalone electrical services across Rhiwbina — including EICR inspections, consumer unit replacements, additional circuits and full rewires for older properties. All work is completed to BS 7671 standards by NAPIT-approved electricians, with full certification and Building Control notification.
