Period cottages beside later family homes

Barns Green is a proper village rather than a hamlet, and its housing has built up over a long period. Older cottages sit alongside twentieth century houses and bungalows, and that spread shows up inside the meter cupboard. We can find rewirable fuses in one house and a plastic board with a single RCD, fitted in the 1990s, next door.

A single RCD board was a step forward in its day, but one fault can switch off every socket and light at once. With two RCDs sharing the circuits, from £425, or an RCBO for every circuit, from £625, the risk is divided, so one problem no longer leaves the whole house in the dark.

Getting the board ready for solar

Family houses with decent roof space are natural candidates for solar panels, and many owners now add a battery as well. Both connect through the consumer unit, which makes an old fuse box lacking spare ways and RCD protection a poor place to join them. A modern board gives the generation circuit its own clearly labelled way.

If you already have panels, we reconnect them to the new board and check the inverter is running before we leave. If they are still a plan, mention it with your photos and we will choose a board with space set aside. The Type 2 surge protection we include also suits homes full of inverters and sensitive electronics.

  • Space for a PV circuit
  • Existing panels reconnected

Getting to you

Across from Southwater

Our usual way is the A24 north, leaving it at Southwater and following the lanes west into the village. Choose a date once we have turned photos of your consumer unit into a fixed quote. Every day of the week, a call about lost power or a board that keeps tripping gets our best effort at a same day visit.

Usually, yes. With one RCD covering every circuit, a single faulty appliance or a damp outdoor socket can cut power to the whole house, freezer included. Spending from £425 on a dual RCD board halves the effect; from £625, an RCBO board confines a trip to the circuit with the fault. We test every circuit first to find what has been tripping it.

We isolate the panels and inverter safely before work begins, because they can still generate when the grid supply is off. Once the new board is in, we reconnect the solar circuit, label it clearly and confirm the inverter is working again. If you have a battery, tell us the make so we can plan around it.

Yes. We charge no travel anywhere in Sussex, so a home in Barns Green costs exactly what it would in Brighton or Horsham. Dual RCD boards start from £425, ten ways of full RCBO protection cost £695, and an EICR done alongside the change is £99.
