Rural homes, old meter positions

Where the supply came in, the board stayed

In older rural homes the fuse box usually sits wherever the electricity supply first entered the building, which may have made sense decades ago. Today that can mean a board under the stairs behind the coats, high up in a porch, inside a garage or squeezed into a kitchen cupboard. A small hamlet like Marlpits is likely to have homes with just that history.

A board in an awkward place is not automatically unsafe, but it can be hard to reach in the dark, fiddly to reset and a nuisance during a kitchen refit. We assess the position as part of your quote, so you can decide whether to keep it there or move it.

  • Current position assessed
  • Easy reach for resetting
  • Clear of cupboards and coats
  • Agreed before work begins

A better home for the consumer unit

Relocation is easiest when it happens alongside a board change. We extend or reroute the circuits to the new position, fit the new consumer unit there and connect it back to the meter with suitably sized tails. Moving the meter itself is a separate matter for your energy supplier, and we explain if and when that would be needed.

Relocation with a new board adds £250 to the board price. If you only want an existing modern board moved, a standalone relocation is £395. Whichever you choose, the full installation is tested once the work is finished, and Building Control receives our Part P notification.

  • Standalone relocation £395

Usually a few metres, for example from under the stairs to a hallway wall, or from a cupboard into a utility room. The practical limit depends on the route for the cables and the distance back to the meter. We look at your photos and suggest the most sensible spot.

Sometimes a little, but we plan cable routes to keep disruption low, using existing voids or neat surface trunking where you are happy with that. We discuss any making good before we start, so you know exactly what will be left for a decorator to finish.

Not by us. The meter belongs to your energy supplier and the incoming cut-out to UK Power Networks, so moving either is arranged with them. In many homes the board can move without the meter moving at all, which keeps the job simpler and quicker.
