A board that has to cope with more

Homes at Horns Cross are spread out in the manner of a rural hamlet, with older houses and cottages, some later properties and the outbuildings that go with country life. Most were wired for households that used far less electricity than today's. A fuse box from that era was never designed for broadband routers, chargers, smart heating controls and a home office running all day.

We size the new board for how you live now, with a protected way for each circuit and room to add more. Where the property is on a TT supply we test the earth rod, and we label every circuit clearly so you know exactly what each switch controls.

  • Sized for modern household loads
  • Spare ways for future additions
  • Earth rod tested where fitted
  • Every switch clearly labelled

Protecting the electronics you rely on

More people now work from home in rural Sussex, and in a hamlet that often means the router, computer and phone charger are the office. Overhead lines in the countryside are exposed to lightning and to switching on the network, and the resulting voltage spikes can damage sensitive electronics without any visible sign until something stops working.

No board leaves our hands without Type 2 surge protection, at no extra charge, which is what current regulations expect in most homes. If your existing consumer unit is modern and suitable, a surge device can be retrofitted for £165 instead. Either way your equipment gets a layer of protection it has never had.

  • Type 2 surge device included
  • £165 retrofit on suitable boards
  • Routers and computers protected
  • Heating controls and TVs covered

For most of the four to six hours a board change takes, your supply will be switched off. If you need to be online, plan to work elsewhere for the day or use a mobile hotspot with a charged laptop. Tell us in advance and we will plan the day so the power is back on as early as is safely possible.

Fitting a new consumer unit is notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations. Because we are Part P registered, we notify Building Control on your behalf, so the work is properly recorded against your address. That matters when you sell, as buyers' solicitors often ask for evidence that electrical work was certified.

A freezer that stays closed will normally hold its temperature for several hours, comfortably covering a typical board change. The boiler simply stops while the power is off and restarts afterwards, though it is worth checking the timer. We tell you when the power is going off and when it is back.
