Older village homes on Hailsham's doorstep

Horsebridge is small, but its houses were not all built at once. Older cottages and houses sit alongside twentieth century homes, and the boards inside them follow the same spread: wooden backed fuse boxes with rewireable fuses at one end, early plastic consumer units at the other, where a single RCD guards the sockets and the lighting has no RCD protection at all.

Both kinds are worth replacing. From £425, a dual RCD board puts every circuit under RCD protection; from £625, a full RCBO board gives each circuit a device of its own. Whichever you choose, we test the whole house afterwards and email the Electrical Installation Certificate within 48 hours.

Where should the board live in a riverside home?

The Cuckmere winds past Horsebridge on its way south, and the fields beside it can hold water after prolonged rain. If your home is on lower ground near the river, or water has ever reached the house, the position of the consumer unit deserves some thought. A board fitted near floor level, or in a garage or utility room that gets damp, is the first thing to suffer.

Moving the consumer unit higher, or into a drier room, adds £250 to the board price when we do it at the same visit. Mention any past flooding or damp when you send your photos, and we will suggest a sensible position before you commit to anything.

  • Board raised clear of floor level
  • Relocation added for £250
  • Damp garages and cupboards avoided
  • Outdoor circuits on separate protection

It is not unsafe in itself, but a low board is the first thing reached by water from a leak, a burst pipe or a flood, and it is awkward to reach when something trips. If you would like it higher or somewhere else, the move costs £250 alongside the new board, and we agree the position with you before starting.

Horsebridge is in Hellingly parish and shares Hailsham's BN27 postcode, and Wealden District Council handles Building Control for both. Either way nothing changes for you: the prices are the same fixed ones we use across Sussex, the journey costs you nothing extra, and Part P notification happens exactly as usual.

If nothing on your board had tripped and the power returned without anyone touching it, the interruption was almost certainly on the network, often a line protection device resetting itself. Report repeated cuts to UK Power Networks on 105. If instead your RCD trips in wet weather and has to be reset by hand, that points to moisture getting into a circuit at your home, which we can trace.
