Small hamlet, varied homes
Country houses, cottages and the odd conversion
Balls Green is a hamlet rather than a village, so the homes are few and spread along lanes in the countryside south east of Billingshurst. Typically that means detached houses and cottages of different ages, some perhaps with barns or outbuildings converted over the years. Each has its own wiring story, and few look alike once you open the meter cupboard.
Because properties out here have usually been altered by several owners, we assume nothing about the circuits. Before the new board goes in we test what is already there, find out what each fuse actually feeds and label it properly. That way the new consumer unit matches the house as it is now.

- Converted outbuildings
- Every fuse traced

Getting the board ready for a heat pump
An air source heat pump runs from your electricity supply, so switching away from an oil or LPG boiler adds a significant new load. The heat pump needs its own protected circuit, and many systems also have an immersion heater in the hot water cylinder. Starting from an old fuse box that lacks both spare ways and RCD protection rarely works well.
When we replace your board we can leave spare ways for the heat pump and immersion, and fit RCBOs so a fault on one does not take out your lights. The heat pump installer then connects to a board that is already tested and certified. Checking supply capacity with UK Power Networks is theirs to arrange.
- Spare ways for heat pump circuits
- Immersion circuit planned in
- RCBOs stop faults spreading
- Certified before the installer arrives

Balls Green questions
Asked in Balls Green
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Not always, but often. If your current board has a spare way, RCD protection and a non-combustible casing, the heat pump installer may be able to connect to it. If it is an old fuse box, a plastic unit or already full, replacing it first is usually the tidier route. Photos of the board are enough for us to tell you which.
Sometimes. It depends on your main fuse rating, the size of the heat pump and what else you run, such as an electric oven or a car charger. The installer submits details to UK Power Networks, who decide whether anything needs upgrading. When we change the board we record the supply details on the certificate, which helps that conversation.
Storage heaters usually run on an off peak supply, which can mean a dual rate meter feeding a separate small board. We map how your heaters are wired before quoting, and the new consumer unit can be arranged to keep them on the cheaper rate. Send a photo of the meter as well as the board so we can see the set up.
