Bigger village, broader mix
From older houses to later builds in Cross in Hand
Cross in Hand has a wider spread of housing than the hamlets nearby, from older properties to twentieth century houses and bungalows and more recent homes. That variety shows up in the boards. Some houses still have fuse boxes with cartridge or rewireable fuses, while later homes often have a consumer unit that works but has no spare ways and only partial RCD protection.
Spare capacity is the practical issue. Adding an electric shower, a garden office or a car charger needs a free way and the right protection. Larger households get plenty of room from fourteen to sixteen RCBO ways at £795, and a modest house is well served by ten ways with dual RCDs at £495.

Getting your board ready for an EV charger
A typical home charger runs on a dedicated circuit drawing around 32 amps for hours at a time, one of the heaviest loads a house will see. It needs a free way in the consumer unit, suitable RCD protection, and a supply and main fuse that can cope alongside the cooker, shower and everything else running in the evening.
If a charger is on your list, say so when you send photos of the board. We will pick a consumer unit with a spare way and the right protection, and check the incoming supply. If the main fuse looks too small for the extra load, we explain the next step with UK Power Networks.

Cross in Hand questions
Asked in Cross in Hand
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Yes, and it often makes sense. If we know a charger is coming, we can choose a board with a spare way and suitable protection, so the charger installer has somewhere to connect. That avoids a second board change or an add-on unit later. Let us know the likely charger if you already have one in mind.
They do. With a dual RCD board, a fault on one circuit can switch off around half the house. With RCBOs, each circuit has its own protection, so only the faulty one goes off. In a household with a home office, a freezer and plenty of devices on charge, that difference is noticed. Full RCBO boards start at £625.
If it is the RCD that trips rather than a breaker, the cause is usually earth leakage adding up across several appliances, or a fault in one of them. If a breaker trips, the circuit may be overloaded. Either way it is worth investigating, and a board with RCBOs makes the culprit far easier to find.
