Spread out, not built up
Detached rural homes and their boards
With no village centre to speak of, Bedham's homes are mostly older cottages and houses set in their own plots. That often means long cable runs to garages, sheds and workshops, outside lights along drives and gateways, and boards that have quietly been extended over the years until there is no spare way left for anything new.
Where several outbuildings hang off one supply, a full RCBO board makes fault finding far easier, because each circuit trips on its own. That kind of board begins at £625 with 8 ways and £695 with 10 or 12, and bigger properties can have a larger one.
- Supplies to outbuildings tested
- Outside lighting circuits checked
- Each circuit on its own RCBO

Trees, storms and surges
Overhead lines through woodland
Rural properties in wooded country are usually fed by overhead lines, and branches brought down in storms are a familiar cause of power cuts. When a line is struck, faulted or switched back on, brief voltage spikes can travel into the house. Lightning nearby has a similar effect. Modern electronics, from boiler controls to broadband routers, tolerate that far less than older appliances did.
No board of ours goes in without Type 2 surge protection, whose job is to send those spikes to earth before your sockets ever see them. If your board is fairly new and simply lacks it, a surge retrofit costs £165. Either way, we test the earth path the device relies on, since surge protection is only as good as its earth.

- Surge retrofit from £165

Getting to you
Finding our way to Bedham
Coming up from Brighton & Hove on the A283 through Pulborough towards Fittleworth, we then leave the main road for the lanes that lead to Bedham. Homes here can be hard to find, so a house name, a dropped pin or brief directions help a lot. The trip itself adds nothing to your bill. You can ring on any day, or send the photos by text. If the power is off, say so and we will aim for the same day.

Bedham questions
Asked in Bedham
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691We think so, which is why it comes with every board we fit. Homes on long overhead lines are more exposed to spikes from lightning and network faults than those on buried town cables. The device costs far less than a replacement boiler control board or television, and the wiring regulations now expect it in most homes.
Not necessarily. When power returns, some appliances leak a little current as they start, and on an older dual RCD board that leakage adds up across half the house. Spreading circuits across individual RCBOs usually cures it. We also test for a genuine fault, since damp outside lights and ageing appliances are common culprits.
A house name and postcode is a start, but RH20 covers a large rural area. A dropped map pin, a note of the nearest junction or landmark, and any gate code or parking advice will save time on the day. Send those details along with the pictures of your board, and they stay attached to your booking.
