Cottages along the lane
Village homes with country supplies
Litlington is a compact village of cottages, houses and farm properties, many of them old, set along the lane with the river meadows on one side and the Downs rising on the other. Electrically, homes like these tend to have had piecemeal updates, and it is common to find modern accessories in the rooms while the board itself has stayed decades behind.
For older cottages with plenty of timber in their structure, it is worth considering arc fault detection. An RCBO and AFDD board, from £1,095, adds devices that recognise the tell-tale signature of a loose or damaged connection arcing and switch the circuit off before it can start a fire.

Power cuts and nuisance trips
Is it the network or the board?
Rural networks can be more exposed to wind and falling branches than town cables, so villages like Litlington can expect the odd power cut. When everything goes dark it is not always obvious whether the problem is the UK Power Networks supply or your own board. A quick look outside helps: if your neighbours still have lights, the fault is almost certainly inside your home.
If the fault is yours, an old board gives you very little to go on. A modern consumer unit shows exactly which device has tripped, and with RCBOs only that circuit goes off. During the board change we test every circuit, so a hidden fault behind repeated trips is usually found rather than guessed at.

Getting to you
How we reach Litlington
We come either through Seaford and up the valley, or along the A27 and down through Alfriston, whichever is quicker on the day. Neither route costs you anything extra. Lines are open all week, and a home left without power by a failed board gets a same day attempt.

Litlington questions
Asked in Litlington
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Check whether your neighbours are affected; if they are, call 105 and UK Power Networks will deal with it. If only your home is off, look at the board for a tripped main switch, RCD or breaker. Try resetting it once with everything unplugged. If it trips again or will not reset, call us.
On a dual RCD board, circuits share two RCDs, so one fault can switch off several circuits at once. With RCBOs, each circuit has its own device and trips alone. That costs more, from £625 rather than £425, but in a rural home where losing the freezer or heating overnight matters, it is often money well spent.
An RCD watches for current leaking to earth, which is what happens when someone touches a live part. An arc fault detection device looks for the electrical pattern of a loose terminal or damaged cable arcing, which can start a fire without ever tripping an RCD. Boards with both RCBO and AFDD protection start at £1,095.
