A few rural homes
Boards that have quietly served for decades
Small rural homes often keep their fuse box far longer than town houses, simply because nothing has forced a change: no sale, no extension, no new kitchen. In hamlets like Littledene it is still possible to find rewireable fuses, wooden backboards or boards with no RCD protection at all, working away decades after they were fitted.
None of that means immediate danger, but it does mean no protection against electric shock and little against fire. Your photos tell us what you have; we then fit a modern board, test every circuit and email your certificate within 48 hours.

Backup generators and a safe changeover
Rural supplies on overhead lines are more exposed to storm damage than buried town cables, and some country households keep a portable generator for power cuts. Connecting one through a socket with a homemade lead is dangerous: it can leave exposed pins live and send power back along the network, putting anyone repairing the line at risk.
When we replace your consumer unit we can advise on a proper changeover arrangement, so the generator can only ever supply the house once it is separated from the grid. Anything extra is priced before work begins, and the new board is fitted with a Type 2 surge protector as standard.

- No back feeding onto the network

Littledene questions
Asked in Littledene
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691If it connects through a lead with a plug on each end, no: that is one of the most dangerous arrangements a home can have. Show us how you connect it when we visit, and we will explain a safe alternative using a proper changeover switch, priced before any work is done.
It is worth doing, as some insurers ask about the age and condition of the electrics. The Electrical Installation Certificate we email within 48 hours, together with the Building Regulations compliance certificate that follows our Part P notification, is the evidence they usually want, so keep both with your house papers.
Usually to within a decade or so. The type of fuses or breakers, the enclosure material, the make and the labelling all give clues, and wooden backboards or rewireable fuses point to a board that is several decades old. If it is safe to open the door, a clear photo of the inside lets us tell you what you have.
