Rural plots, outdoor circuits

Gardens, drives and a lot of cable

High Hurstwood is a spread out hamlet of rural homes along lanes in wooded, rolling country. Houses with land around them tend to collect outdoor circuits: a light on the drive, a pump for a pond, a socket by the patio, a feed to the garage. Each one is another place for damp or damage to trip an RCD that also serves rooms inside.

We test every circuit, outdoor ones included, before connecting it to the new board. With full RCBO protection, from £625, each circuit is protected on its own, so a wet garden light no longer plunges the kitchen into darkness on a winter evening.

  • Outdoor circuits tested
  • Damp faults traced
  • Own protection per circuit
  • Garden lighting kept separate

Annexes and second buildings

When a second building shares the supply

Annexes for relatives, guests or a grown up child are a familiar feature of rural homes, and most are fed by a cable from the main house to a small board of their own. If that cable is undersized, or both boards rely on ordinary RCDs that react at the same moment, a fault in the annexe can trip the house as well.

When we replace the main board, we check the sub-main cable, its protection and the board at the far end. Where both ends need RCD cover, we arrange the devices so that a fault in the annexe trips only the annexe, keeping the lights and heating on in the house.

  • Sub-main cable checked
  • Annexe board inspected
  • Faults kept to one building
  • Both buildings on one certificate
Getting to you

High Hurstwood appointments

Leaving Brighton & Hove, we head through Lewes and Uckfield, then out past Buxted and north along the lanes. Include the annexe board, if there is one, when you text photos of the main board, and the price you get back will be fixed. When a fault leaves you without power, phoning us means we will try our best to come out that day.

Not always. If the annexe board is modern, sound and protected by suitable RCDs, we test it and leave it in place. If it is old, has rewireable fuses or is fed by an undersized cable, we will say so and include the work in the fixed price we send you, so you can decide before anything is booked.

It is not ideal. When one RCD covers every circuit, any single fault leaves the whole house without power, lighting included, which is a real nuisance at night. The regulations ask for circuits to be arranged so that one fault causes as little disruption as possible. A dual RCD board splits the load, and an RCBO board separates every circuit.

Yes. Sockets that could power equipment used outdoors need RCD protection, and the socket itself should be weatherproof with a cover that closes properly. We test outdoor sockets along with every other circuit when we change the board. If a cover is cracked or the socket shows signs of water getting in, we point it out and suggest a fix.
