More than one building on the same meter

In a rural hamlet like Chitcombe, the house is often only part of the picture. Barns, stables, workshops and garages may all draw power from the same meter, sometimes through cables laid many years ago. It is common to find a main fuse box in the house feeding a small board somewhere else, each from a different decade and fitted by different people.

We trace where every cable goes before we quote, so the price covers what you actually have. If an outbuilding is fed from the house, the new unit gives that supply its own correctly rated protection, and where the far end needs a fresh board too, we say so at the outset.

  • Barns, stables and workshops traced
  • Sub-main protection sized properly
  • Remote boards priced openly
  • One certificate for the whole job

Buried and overhead runs to outbuildings

Power reaching a detached building travels either underground or on a cable strung overhead. Older runs were not always armoured or buried deep enough, and damage from machinery, rodents or a dug trench can go unnoticed for years. When we replace your main board, we test insulation and continuity right out to the far end, so a hidden fault in that run comes to light.

Where an outbuilding has its own earth rod, or should have one, we measure it and explain the reading in plain terms. Animals and damp conditions call for proper RCD protection, so stables and wash-down areas get particular attention. Any remedial work is priced separately, and only carried out if you want it.

  • Insulation tested to the far end
  • Outbuilding earth rods measured
  • RCD protection for wet areas
  • Remedials only with your approval

Not necessarily. If it is in good condition and correctly protected from the house, it can stay. We test it alongside the main installation and tell you honestly whether it is fine, needs attention or should be changed. A second board only goes into the quote if it genuinely needs replacing.

Yes, ideally. Every circuit leaving the new board is tested, including cables running out to other buildings. If a building is usually locked, let us know beforehand or leave a key. Any animals should be settled before we isolate the supply, because lighting and power out there will be off for a while.

Replacing a consumer unit is notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations. As a Part P registered firm we notify Building Control on your behalf, so you do not need to apply to Rother District Council yourself. Our Electrical Installation Certificate reaches your inbox within 48 hours of the job as well.
