A village built in stages
Older village houses beside newer neighbours
Like many Wealden villages, Mark Cross has grown in stages, so the houses along its roads were not all wired at the same time. That tends to show at the fuse box: some homes still have a wooden-backed board with rewireable fuses, others a 1990s unit where a single RCD guards half the circuits, and a few have had boxes added as the house grew.
In most cases one picture showing both the board and the meter lets us put a price on the work. Many houses are well served by a dual RCD unit at £425. Where you would rather a single fault switched off only its own circuit, full RCBO protection starts at £625.

Extending the house
Planning an extension or a loft room?
Village homes here are often extended rather than replaced: a kitchen pushed out at the back, a loft turned into a bedroom, a garage converted into a study. Each of those adds circuits, and an older fuse box rarely has the spare ways or the RCD protection that new work needs before it can be signed off.
If building work is on the horizon, it is worth changing the board first or at the same time. The new consumer unit is sized with spare ways for the planned work, the Part P notification to Building Control is dealt with, and your builder gets a clear certificate to work from.
- Spare ways for future circuits
- Part P notification handled
- Certificate ready for your builder
- Board sized for the finished house

Mark Cross questions
Asked in Mark Cross
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Ideally before, or as part of the same job. An extension's new circuits must have RCD protection and a free way to connect to, two things an older fuse box seldom offers. Fitting the consumer unit first means your electrician or builder can connect straight into it, and the whole installation ends up properly certified.
Usually, yes. Most replacements go exactly where the old board was, reusing the existing circuits once they pass testing. If the current spot is awkward, for example high in a cupboard or in a damp outbuilding, we can move it when we fit the new board for an extra £250, priced up front.
Every circuit in the house is tested, not just the board: insulation resistance, earth continuity, polarity, earth fault loop impedance and the trip time of each RCD or RCBO. The results go on your Electrical Installation Certificate, which we email within 48 hours, and the work is notified to Building Control.
