Country homes outside the village centre

Ginger's Green sits away from the centre of Herstmonceux, among fields and lanes, and its homes are the kind you find dotted across this parish: detached cottages and houses, some much older than others, often extended over the years. Out here the fuse box has often been left alone while kitchens, bathrooms and heating changed around it.

The result can be a board carrying far more than it was designed for: electric showers, extra kitchen circuits, an immersion heater, perhaps a garage. The replacement consumer unit is matched to the loads of today, has Type 2 surge protection fitted, and the whole house is tested before we leave.

  • Showers and cookers on suitable circuits
  • Overloaded boards replaced
  • Surge protection included
  • Whole house tested on completion

Making room on the board for a heat pump

Rural parts of Herstmonceux parish, like much of the Sussex countryside, include homes with no mains gas that heat with oil, LPG or electricity. A heat pump is the usual low carbon replacement, but it needs a dedicated circuit with the right protection and a supply that can take the extra load. A full or elderly fuse box is often the first thing an installer flags.

We can change the board ahead of the heat pump installation, leaving a protected way ready for it, and check your main fuse rating so the installer is not caught out. For a larger home adding a heat pump, an immersion heater and perhaps a charger later, an RCBO board with 14 to 16 ways at £795 is a good fit.

  • Protected way ready for the heat pump
  • Main fuse rating checked
  • Larger RCBO boards at £795
  • Work coordinated with your installer

Ginger's Green questions

Still not sure?

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

Call 0333 360 8691

It means an empty position in the consumer unit where a new protective device can be fitted for the heat pump circuit. Old fuse boxes and full boards have none, so the installer cannot connect safely. We fit a new board with spare ways and can leave a suitable device in place, ready for the installer to connect.

Normally your heat pump installer, as part of their job. Heat pumps have to be notified to the network operator, and larger units may need approval before they are connected. When we change the board we check your main fuse and supply equipment and pass on anything relevant, so nothing on the electrical side holds things up.

Not usually. Once the board is in, your heat pump installer connects to the spare way and certifies their own circuit. Should you want the finished installation inspected later, a standalone EICR is priced between £175 and £350 according to how big the house is, and its report covers every circuit, the heat pump supply among them.
