Minsted homes and the boards we expect

As a hamlet, Minsted has just a small number of homes, most of them the rural houses and cottages typical of the country west of Midhurst. Without a visit we cannot know what is in your cupboard, but older properties around here commonly have rewireable fuse boards, early split load units, or boards topped up with add-on switches over the years.

Photos settle it quickly. A fixed price can be worked out from pictures of the board, meter and main fuse. On the day, we replace the board, test the whole property and email your Electrical Installation Certificate within 48 hours, with Building Control notified under Part P.

Voltage spikes on the line, and what they break

Supplies to country homes west of Midhurst often run overhead, sometimes through or near trees. Storms, lightning and branches on the lines can cause brief voltage spikes, as can switching on the network when supply is restored after a cut. Each spike is over in an instant, but it can damage routers, boiler controls, televisions and anything else with electronics inside.

Surge protection of the Type 2 kind is built into each board we install, so it costs nothing extra. If your consumer unit is already modern and sound, we can add surge protection on its own for £165. It will not stop a power cut, but it reduces the risk of damage when the lines are disturbed.

Brief dips during storms are usually on the network, often as protection on the overhead lines operates and resets. That is for UK Power Networks to look at, and you can report it on 105. What we can do is make sure your home is better protected from the spikes that sometimes come with it, by fitting surge protection.

Not the fuse box on its own, but the surge protection device fitted with it is designed for exactly that kind of event. It diverts a short voltage spike to earth before it reaches your circuits. No device can promise to stop every surge, especially from a direct lightning strike, but it greatly reduces the risk.

Someone needs to let us in and be around at the end, when we show you the new board, explain the RCD test button and go through the circuit labels. In between you are free to go out if you wish. Expect to be without power for most of the job, which runs to 4 to 6 hours.
