Cottages and houses in a small hamlet
What tends to sit behind the meter here
In a hamlet like Brownbread Street, homes have been built, extended and rewired at different times, so no two boards are quite alike. We often find an old fuse box or a first generation RCD unit that has gained extra circuits over the years, perhaps for a kitchen extension, an outbuilding or an immersion heater fed from its own separate switch.
Our quote starts with a picture showing the board and where the meter is. On the day, every circuit is traced, labelled and tested, and anything that fails is explained to you in plain terms before any extra work is agreed.

Overhead lines and earth rods
Overhead lines through Wealden woodland
Among the High Weald woods west of Battle, overhead lines rather than buried cables bring power to many homes, and the earth is often provided by a metal rod sunk in the ground close to the house. That arrangement, known as TT earthing, puts the job of clearing an earth fault squarely on the RCD protection in your consumer unit.
On every TT job the resistance of the earth electrode is measured, and the rod and its connection are checked for soundness. Where a rod is missing, damaged or reading too high, we tell you before the board goes in and price the fix separately, so you know exactly what you are paying for.
- Earth electrode resistance measured
- RCD protection matched to TT earthing
- Surge protection fitted on every board
- Rod faults priced before work starts

Brownbread Street questions
Asked in Brownbread Street
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691With TT earthing, your home's earth comes from a metal rod in the ground rather than from the network cable. Look near the meter for a green and yellow cable heading down through the floor or out through the wall towards the ground. If you are still unsure, add a picture of it to your quote request and we can confirm whether you have TT earthing.
On many TT supplies an earlier electrician fitted a standalone RCD beside an old fuse box to add earth fault protection. It was a sensible fix at the time, but it means a single fault can switch off the whole house. A modern board splits that protection across circuits, so one fault affects far less of your home.
For many smaller homes the right fit is a dual RCD board, priced at £425 for 6 ways or £495 for 10. If you would like each circuit protected on its own, a full RCBO board starts at £625. Send photos of your existing board and we will confirm which fits your home, with surge protection included in every price.
