Close to town, still rural
A hamlet with older wiring behind the walls
As a hamlet close to Uckfield, Hammonds Green has homes that may have been fully rewired, part rewired or simply added to over many decades. A board can look tidy while the cables behind it come from several different eras, joined in loft spaces and under floors. That kind of mix is exactly what testing should uncover before a modern board goes in.
We check insulation resistance, earth continuity and polarity on each circuit, and look out for older rubber or fabric covered cable that may need replacing. If anything fails, you hear about it before the new board is connected, together with a clear price for putting it right. Nothing extra is done without your agreement.
- Insulation resistance tested
- Old rubber cable identified
- Faults reported before switch over
- No extra work without your say

Why new boards sometimes trip
Hidden faults that an old fuse box ignored
A fuse only reacts to too much current. An RCD also reacts to current leaking to earth, so it notices faults a fuse box never did: a damp outdoor socket, a tired immersion heater element, or a neutral shared between two circuits by an earlier alteration. Fit a new board without finding these and the RCD trips again and again.
That is why we test the whole property with every board change, not just the new unit. Faults are traced and explained, so the board you are left with stays on. To limit the reach of any future fault, a full RCBO board gives each circuit its own protection, from £625.
- Borrowed neutrals traced
- Damp outdoor circuits checked
- Immersion heaters tested

Hammonds Green questions
Asked in Hammonds Green
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Because the RCD is doing a job the old fuses could not. It detects small leaks of current to earth, which a fuse ignores. A worn appliance, water in an outside light or a wiring fault left by an old alteration can all cause trips. Our testing finds these before reconnection, and we explain the cause rather than leaving you guessing.
Rubber insulated cable, widely used before PVC took over in the mid twentieth century, becomes brittle with age and can crack when disturbed. If we find it, we test it and show you the results. Where it has failed or is crumbling, those circuits need rewiring before they go onto a new board, and we give you a separate price for that.
Only for circuits that pass the tests needed to connect them safely. A circuit that fails cannot go onto the new board, though we can leave it disconnected and clearly labelled while you weigh up the options, which keeps every other room protected and powered in the meantime.
