Small hamlet, scattered homes
The housing around Butchers Cross
Butchers Cross is a small place, a cluster of rural homes rather than a village with a centre of its own. Houses like these are often older or much altered, and their electrics reflect that history. We commonly find boards that predate RCD protection, cartridge fuse carriers, or a consumer unit that has been extended until there are no ways left.
Whatever we find, the replacement is a fixed price agreed before we start. Six ways with dual RCDs cost £425, twelve ways in a high integrity layout £575, and boards with RCBOs on every circuit start at £625.

Working out why the lights went off
Overhead lines run through much of the countryside around here, and wind, falling branches and lightning can all interrupt the supply. When everything goes dark, the first question is whether the fault is on the network or inside your home. If the neighbours have lost power too, or nothing on your board has tripped, ring UK Power Networks on 105.
If only your house is affected and an RCD keeps dropping out, the problem is on your side of the meter, and that is where we come in. Give each circuit its own RCBO in a new board and a fault is confined to that circuit, leaving everything else powered while it is traced.
- Network faults: ring 105
- House faults: call us
- RCBOs isolate one circuit
- Surge protection for storms

Butchers Cross questions
Asked in Butchers Cross
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Usually a small leakage to earth somewhere, such as a damp outside light, a failing heating element in an appliance or ageing cable. On a board where one RCD covers many circuits, those small leaks add together until it trips. Splitting circuits across individual RCBOs stops them adding up, and our testing during the board change helps find the culprit.
If several houses have lost power, it is almost certainly a network fault, and the number to ring is 105, which reaches UK Power Networks free of charge. We cannot repair the network itself. If only your home is off and something on your board has tripped or will not reset, call us.
A high integrity board shares circuits between two RCDs and has a few ways fed directly from the main switch, which gives more flexibility than an older single RCD layout. At £575 for 12 ways it is a solid choice. RCBOs go further, giving every circuit its own protection, so one fault never takes out its neighbours. If random tripping is your main complaint, RCBOs are usually worth it.
