Cottages, family houses and their boards

Nutbourne has the variety of a small village rather than the sameness of a planned estate: older cottages along the lanes, twentieth century family houses, and extensions added whenever owners wanted more room. The fuse boxes follow suit. We may find rewireable fuses in a wooden or metal box, a plastic board with a single RCD, or a newer extension wired onto whatever spare way happened to be free.

Our quote starts from pictures of three things: the fuse box, the meter and the main earth cable. On the day, every circuit is tested before anything new is fixed to the wall, so you know whether the existing cables are sound. Expect £425 upwards with dual RCDs, or £625 upwards with RCBOs on every circuit, and you get a straight answer on which one your house really needs.

  • Single RCD boards upgraded
  • Extension circuits brought in
  • Every circuit tested first

Getting the board ready for a heat pump

If your Nutbourne home runs on oil or LPG and you are thinking about an air source heat pump, look at the fuse box early. A heat pump needs its own dedicated circuit, with an isolator by the outdoor unit, and it adds a long, steady load through the winter. An old board with no spare ways and no RCD protection is often the first thing in the way.

We size the new board with a spare way for the heat pump and, if you want one later, a car charger. We also note the rating of the main fuse in the sealed cut-out. If it is too small for the extra load, your heat pump installer raises it with UK Power Networks, who own that fuse and can upgrade it.

  • Spare way for the heat pump
  • Main fuse rating noted
  • Room left for a car charger
  • Surge protection for the controls
Getting to you

Reaching Nutbourne from either end of the A283

Coming from our base in Brighton & Hove, traffic decides whether we arrive from Storrington or the Pulborough end, both on the A283, and the journey is free whichever way we come. Dates are normally arranged once you have texted us a few photos, but a power failure deserves a phone call, and we aim to be with you that day.

Yes. This page covers the Nutbourne in Pulborough parish, Horsham district, with an RH20 postcode. The other Nutbourne lies on the A259 near Southbourne, with a PO18 postcode, and we cover that one too. Prices are the same in both and neither carries a travel charge, so just include your postcode when you text your photos.

The main fuse sits in the sealed cut-out and belongs to UK Power Networks, so the decision is theirs. When we change your board we record the fuse rating and the size of the meter tails. Your heat pump installer passes those details on when notifying UK Power Networks, who will upgrade the fuse if the new load needs it.

The wiring regulations say a new circuit should not be added unless the existing equipment, earthing and bonding are adequate for it, and an old board with no RCD protection or spare ways rarely is. Changing it first keeps installation day simple. You also gain surge protection and a full set of test results showing how the rest of the wiring is doing.
