A hamlet of Barcombe parish
Fuse Box Replacement in Mount Pleasant
This is the Mount Pleasant in Barcombe parish, a small hamlet out in the countryside south west of Uckfield. Homes this far out are usually on rural supplies, so when we replace a fuse box here we look closely at the earthing as well as the board.

A few houses, set well apart
Small hamlet, individual homes
A hamlet like Mount Pleasant is made up of a handful of houses and cottages rather than streets, and each property has its own wiring story. Some boards will have been changed once already, perhaps for a plastic unit with a single RCD; others still hold the original fuses. Garages, workshops and garden sheds with power add to the picture.
When you send photos, include the board, the meter, the incoming cable and anything that looks like an earth connection. That lets us give a fixed price that already allows for what your particular supply needs, rather than a guess that changes on the day.

Specified for Mount PleasantEarth rods and TT supplies
Earth rods and TT supplies
Testing the earth your board depends on
On many rural supplies the network does not provide an earth. Instead the house relies on an earth rod of its own, set into the ground, an arrangement known as a TT system. The rod, working together with RCD protection, is what keeps the installation safe when a fault occurs. If it has corroded, been disturbed or never gave a good reading, protection against electric shock is weakened.
Whenever we change a board where the supply is TT, the resistance of the earth electrode is measured and the reading goes on your certificate. If the reading is poor, we tell you and quote to improve it before going ahead. With RCD protection on every circuit and a sound rod, a TT home is properly protected, and you have the proof in writing.
- Earth electrode resistance measured
- Result recorded on the certificate
- Poor rods quoted for before work
- RCD protection on every circuit

Mount Pleasant questions
Asked in Mount Pleasant
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Look where the supply cable enters near the meter. If there is no earth clamp or earth terminal provided by the network, and instead a green and yellow cable runs out through the wall or floor, you probably have an earth rod. Send us a photo and we will confirm it before quoting.
In most cases, yes. If testing shows the existing rod is not giving a good enough reading, we can fit a new one or add to it while we are there, as long as you have agreed the extra cost first. We never leave a TT installation without a tested and recorded earth.
Someone needs to let us in, show us the board and answer a few quick questions, such as which outbuildings have power. After that you are free to get on with your day. Once the job is finished we talk you through the test results, and the full certificate follows by email no later than 48 hours afterwards.
