Extensions, lofts and a crowded board

Houses in small hamlets such as Dodds Bottom are usually individual buildings of different ages rather than rows built together, so wiring varies from one door to the next. Where a home has been extended, a loft converted or a utility room added, the extra circuits are often squeezed onto whatever the original board could take.

We count the circuits you have, the ones you are planning and the spare ways you want for later, then recommend a size. As a guide, a dual RCD board of 10 ways costs £495, while a full RCBO board offering 10 to 12 ways costs £695. Once we have seen your photos, the quote is fixed.

Making room for solar and storage

Rural homes often have good roof space for solar panels, and more owners are adding a battery so that daytime generation can be used in the evening. Each needs its own protected connection at the consumer unit, and an older board with no spare ways, or with the wrong type of RCD, can hold the whole project up.

We fit boards with spare ways for the inverter and battery circuits and choose protective devices suited to them. Your solar installer still notifies UK Power Networks about the generation, but a board that is ready first makes their day simpler. The Type 2 surge protection we include also helps protect inverter electronics.

Dodds Bottom questions

Asked in Dodds Bottom

Still not sure?

Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.

Not always. If your board has a spare way, suitable RCD protection and is in good condition, the battery may connect to it. If it is full, old or lacks RCD protection, replacing it first is usually the tidier answer and avoids a separate enclosure bolted on beside it. Photos of your board let us say which.

The installer of the generating equipment is responsible for notifying UK Power Networks, and larger systems need approval before they connect. Our part is the consumer unit: we provide a suitably protected circuit, test it and record it on your Electrical Installation Certificate, which your solar installer will want to see.

Yes, and it is worth planning. Tell us about anything you might add in the next few years, such as an EV charger, a heat pump or a garden building, and we will choose a board with spare ways. If several new circuits are likely, a full RCBO board with 14 to 16 ways costs £795.
