What we tend to find in Highleigh homes
Highleigh, a small village, is made up of individual houses and bungalows spread out beside farmland rather than rows of matching homes. They are of different ages and most have been updated by different owners at different times. That is why we ask for photos of the board, meter and main earth: in a place like this, no two installations look quite the same.
Common findings include old boards with no RCD, a mixture of breaker brands added over the years, and earthing conductors smaller than today's standard. All of that is put right as part of the board change, and every circuit is tested before the job is signed off.

Overhead lines and earth rods
TT earthing and overhead supplies
Rural properties like those around Highleigh are sometimes fed by overhead lines and do not take an earth from the network. Instead they rely on their own earth rod, an arrangement called TT. On a TT system, RCD protection is not optional: it is what makes the earthing work, and the rod itself needs testing to make sure it is still doing its job.
On a TT supply, every board change includes a resistance reading on the earth electrode, and you will hear from us if a new rod is needed. Lightning and switching surges also reach overhead lines more easily, which is one reason every board we install has a Type 2 surge protector built in.
- Earth rod resistance measured
- RCD protection for TT systems
- Surge protection included
- Overhead supplies understood
Getting to you
Reaching Highleigh's lanes
From the A27 at Chichester we head south on the B2145 towards Sidlesham, then into the lanes. We book most replacements a few days out, once the photo quote is agreed. Storms and faults can leave a board dead or tripping constantly; if that happens, phone us, and we aim to be there that day.

Highleigh questions
Asked in Highleigh
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Look near your meter. If the main earth cable connects to the network's cable head, you probably have a PME or cable sheath earth. If it leaves the house and goes into the ground, often to a rod under a small cover outside, it is likely TT. Send us a photo of that area and we will confirm it before quoting.
A new board cannot prevent network power cuts, which are for UK Power Networks to fix. What it can do is help your own installation cope: surge protection shields electronics from spikes, and individual circuit protection makes it easier to see whether a fault is inside your home. For a power cut, call 105.
The board prices are the same: from £425 for a dual RCD unit and £625 for full RCBO. On a TT system, testing the earth rod is included in the work. If the rod is missing, damaged or reads too high, we explain what is needed and price it before any extra work goes ahead.
