Nuthurst's older houses and what lies behind the walls

Nuthurst is a long established village of cottages and older houses in quiet countryside, with some later homes among them. In houses of this age the wiring may have been replaced decades ago, partly updated, or in rare cases left largely as it was, so the condition of the cables matters as much as the fuse box itself.

Every board change includes an insulation resistance test on each circuit. If the readings show the wiring is near the end of its life, we tell you before fitting the new board and explain your options, rather than leaving you with a board that trips.

  • Results explained in plain terms

Rewireable fuses and rubber insulated wiring

A fuse box with porcelain or plastic carriers holding lengths of fuse wire is a sign the installation has not been updated in a long time. These boards offer no RCD protection against electric shock, and fuse wire is easily replaced with the wrong rating. Cable from the same era, especially rubber insulated wiring, becomes brittle as it ages.

If we find rubber or lead sheathed cable, we will show you and advise on rewiring before any new board goes on. Where the cables are PVC and test well, a straight replacement is fine, starting at £425 for 6 ways of dual RCD protection with surge protection included.

  • Fuse wire boards replaced
  • Rubber cable identified
  • Rewire advice before work
  • Dual RCD from £425
Getting to you

Nuthurst, just south of Horsham

Please do not. Using the wrong wire, or anything other than fuse wire of the correct rating, can let a cable overheat without the fuse ever blowing. Turn off the main switch, leave that circuit off and call us. A fuse that keeps blowing usually points to a fault, and it is a good moment to replace the board.

Look at the cables entering the fuse box, without touching them. Rubber insulated cable is often black, sometimes with a cloth covering, and may look cracked or crumbly. Modern PVC cable is usually grey or white with a smooth plastic sheath. If you are unsure, a photo usually tells us enough.

Not usually. Many houses with old fuse boxes have since had PVC wiring that tests well, and a new board is all they need. A rewire is only advised when testing shows the cables are failing or of an obsolete type. We share the readings with you so you can see the reasoning for yourself.
