Broad Oak housing and the boards we expect

Sitting so close to Heathfield, Broad Oak is a village rather than a scattered hamlet, with a mix of older houses and twentieth century homes. Plenty will have had a consumer unit fitted at some point since the 1980s, which can mean a working board that still leaves lighting circuits without RCD protection, or one housed in a plastic enclosure.

Plastic consumer units are no longer accepted for new work in homes; the regulations call for a non-combustible enclosure, usually steel. Bringing it up to date costs from £425 with dual RCDs or £625 for eight ways of RCBOs, and both include surge protection.

  • Lighting circuits brought under RCD
  • Plastic enclosures replaced in steel
  • 8 way RCBO £625
  • Surge protection included

Letting a Broad Oak home: the electrical checks

In England, a private landlord has to get the electrical installation in a rented home inspected and tested no less than once every five years, then hand tenants a copy of the report. Fuse boxes without RCD protection are among the things that report flags most often, which is why changing the board beforehand can spare you a second round of work.

An EICR on its own runs from £175 to £350, rising with the size of the property, but drops to £99 when done alongside a new board. For a house in multiple occupation, reports start at £350, and an RCBO board with AFDDs from £1,095 is worth discussing given the fire risk shared homes carry.

  • An EICR every five years or sooner
  • £99 alongside a new board
  • Standalone EICR £175 to £350
  • HMO reports from £350

This page covers Broad Oak in Heathfield and Waldron parish, TN21, in Wealden district. There is another Broad Oak near Brede in Rother district, and we work there too. Either way you pay the same, with nothing added for travel anywhere in Sussex, so the postcode is the only thing that changes.

No law says the fuse box itself must be replaced. What the rules demand is a safe installation, checked by an EICR no less often than every five years. If the report finds the board or its protection falls short, the landlord must put that right within the period given, which is 28 days or less.

Yes, though the power will be off for most of the visit, usually 4 to 6 hours. It helps to agree a date in advance so tenants can plan work and meals around it. We test everything before leaving, and both the landlord and the tenants can be sent a copy of the certificate.
