A village with its own station
Fuse Box Replacement in Etchingham
Etchingham is a Rother valley village with its own station on the London to Hastings line. When an old fuse box here makes way for a modern consumer unit, we can lay out the new board around what a busy household adds, such as a home office or an electric car charger.

Old and newer, side by side
Older houses and later homes in one village
Etchingham is larger than the hamlets around it, and its housing covers a wider span: older cottages and houses alongside twentieth century homes and bungalows. The fuse boxes vary just as much. In a village like this you can find original boards with rewireable fuses, early plastic consumer units with a single RCD, and everything in between.
Whatever is there now, the replacement follows the same process. The supply is isolated, the new board goes in complete with a Type 2 surge device, and then the whole installation is tested and inspected, not only the circuits we worked on. Within 48 hours, the certificate lands in your inbox.

Commuting and charging
Room on the board for a car charger
With a station on the doorstep, some Etchingham households travel by train while others drive, and more of those cars are now electric. A home charger is a large, long running load, and it needs its own protected circuit. If your old fuse box is full or lacks RCD protection, most charger installers will want the board sorted first.
We can fit a board with a spare way ready for the charger, check the size of the main fuse, and confirm the earthing so your charger installer has what they need. A home office with a desk full of equipment also benefits from its own circuit, which is easy to add while the board is being changed.
- Spare way for an EV charger
- Main fuse size checked
- Earthing confirmed for the installer
- Home office circuits added
Getting to you
Getting to Etchingham
The A265 runs right through Etchingham, so we usually head out from Brighton & Hove through Heathfield and Burwash on that road. Fixed prices come from your photos, so the visit is for fitting, not a survey. Should the board trip and refuse to reset, ring us and we will push for a visit that same day.

Etchingham questions
Asked in Etchingham
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Before, ideally. If the board needs replacing anyway, doing it first means the charger can be connected to a proper way with suitable protection rather than a separate add on unit. Tell us the charger model if you know it and we will make sure the layout suits. For pricing, allow £495 for dual RCD protection across 10 ways, or £695 for an RCBO board of 10 to 12 ways.
Yes, in most houses. Current rules require new boards in homes to have a non combustible enclosure, which matters most in places like under the stairs, where a fire could block the way out. A modern board in a metal enclosure in the same cupboard is usually fine. If the position is awkward or hard to reach, relocation adds £250.
If the current board is old or full, change it now with enough spare ways for the extension, so new circuits can be connected later without a second board. If the board is fairly new and sound, it may be better to wait and plan the layout once the kitchen design is settled. Photos of what you have help us advise either way.
