Condition grade 7/10 (Reclaimed). Assessed by the seller at listing; figures below relate to this specific lot of 4 boards.

About this lot

Metal-clad consumer units, all new, boxed. Surplus to a residential development. Located in Newcastle — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Direct from Newcastle Reclaim Co., a demolition operating out of Newcastle; live for 13 days.

This is exactly the kind of material that typically ends up in a skip costing the seller money; buying it diverts it back into a build. It is sold as reclaimed: character included, surprises excluded — read the defect notes below before bidding your time.

Condition report & known defects

7/10
  • Decommissioned professionally with test certification — see measurements table.
  • Expect natural variation in tone and texture across the batch — this is the appeal of reclaimed stock.
  • Minor handling marks from salvage and palletising; nothing affecting use.

Carbon & sustainability notes

Choosing this lot over new product avoids an estimated 40 kg CO₂e — benchmarked against manufacturing new fittings and copper cable (copper ~4 kg CO₂e per kg; an LED panel ~25 kg CO₂e).

For scale: roughly 236 km in a typical petrol car, or a year's absorption for 2 established trees.

With Part Z and embodied-carbon reporting moving up the agenda, documented reuse like this is increasingly worth recording in your project's carbon log.

Collection & delivery

  • Buyer collection in Newcastle; kerbside hand-load or forklift by arrangement.
  • Nationwide pallet courier available — typically £70–£110 per pallet, 2–4 working days.
  • Viewings welcomed by appointment; the measurements table above reflects what was checked at listing.

Typical applications

  • EV charger sub-main runs (SWA stock)
  • Hospitality and retail feature lighting
  • Garden, outbuilding and security lighting
  • Full rewires and consumer unit upgrades

Questions about this lot

Can surplus electrical gear be used in a certified install?+

Yes — new surplus carries the same markings and standards as merchant stock. Your electrician certifies the installation, not the purchase route.

Is part-used cable drum length guaranteed?+

The stated length is measured, not estimated — Newcastle Reclaim Co. re-measures drums on listing with a ±1m tolerance.

Are the LED fittings covered by warranty?+

End-of-line stock typically retains the manufacturer's product warranty from date of purchase — keep the invoice as proof.
