How do I get my outdoor meter cubicle replaced?

In most modern homes, electricity meters are located in an outdoor meter cubicle and is the property of the home owner. If you need to replace the consumer unit then you will need to get an electrician or electrical contractor to do this for you.

NIE Networks will need to temporarily remove the meter and their other equipment from the old board and re-attach it to the new board. To obtain a quote for this work you will need to complete a connection application form for an alteration and submit it to our connections team.
