Isolated homes, wiring from several decades

In the truest sense a hamlet, Edburton amounts to a church and a loose string of farms and cottages along the lane, with open fields running north towards the Weald. Homes this far out have often been modernised a room at a time, so wiring from several decades can end up on one installation, with old fuses for some circuits and a newer unit bolted on for others.

Replacing it all with one consumer unit gives every circuit modern protection and a clear label. Testing shows how the older cables are holding up, so you can plan any rewiring on your own timetable rather than finding out after a fault.

  • Mixed era wiring brought together
  • Circuit schedule left on site
  • Insulation of old cables tested
  • Honest advice on any rewiring

Rural supplies need a properly tested earth

Out here the supply often comes in on an overhead line strung between wooden poles, and plenty of homes are TT earthed, depending on an earth rod sunk in the ground instead of an earth provided by the network. On a TT supply the RCD is doing essential safety work, so a fuse box lacking one, or a rod that has corroded or been disturbed, is a genuine concern.

Each board change includes a reading of the earth electrode's resistance, plus checks on the main earthing and the bonding to water, oil or gas pipework. If the rod reading is poor we tell you and can fit a new one. Every reading is written onto your certificate, which we email across within 48 hours.

  • Earth electrode resistance measured
  • Main bonding checked and upgraded
  • RCD protection on every circuit
  • Readings recorded on your certificate

It is very likely your earthing conductor running to an earth rod outside, which means the property is TT earthed. That is normal for rural homes, but the rod needs testing and the board must have RCD protection. Text us a photo of the meter position and we will confirm what you have before we quote.

Flicker that comes with the weather is usually on the overhead network rather than inside your home, and that is one for UK Power Networks, who you can reach by calling 105. If the flicker happens whatever the weather, or one circuit keeps dropping out, a loose connection in an old board is possible and we can check it.

In most cases, yes. The new board, its RCBOs and its surge protection stay in place when circuits are rewired, so the money is not wasted. Testing at the board change also shows which circuits are sound, which helps you decide whether a full rewire is needed at all or only part of the house.
