Fuse Box Replacement in Ockham
This Ockham is the East Sussex hamlet in Ewhurst parish, north east of Battle in the TN32 postcode district. Plenty of rural homes beyond the reach of mains gas run on electric heating, so the boards we fit in place of old fuse boxes are chosen to work with storage heaters and off peak meters.

Rural homes, electric heat
Two boards, one meter: a common rural setup
Homes with night storage heaters often have more than one board. A dual rate meter supplies the everyday circuits through one board and the off peak heating through another, sometimes with a time switch or extra isolators nearby. Over the years further pieces get added, until the wall around the meter becomes a crowded panel of mixed equipment that is hard to make sense of.
We untangle that before we quote. From your photos we can usually see how the supplies are split, and we price the board, or boards, needed to bring everything up to date. The off peak arrangement stays as it is, so your heaters keep charging overnight.

Electric heating and an ageing fuse box
Storage heaters draw a heavy load for hours every night. On an old board, that steady current puts strain on worn fuse carriers and loose connections, and warm or discoloured fuse holders are a warning sign. Replacing the board puts each heater circuit on correctly rated protection, with every termination made fresh and tight.
If you plan to move away from storage heaters later, perhaps to a heat pump or modern panel heaters, the new board can be laid out with that in mind. We keep spare ways and leave the off peak circuits easy to repurpose, which saves cost and disruption when the heating changes.
- Heater circuits correctly rated
- Heat damaged fuse holders replaced
- Spare ways for future heating
- Off peak circuits clearly labelled

Ockham questions
Asked in Ockham
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Yes. We look at both boards together and decide whether they should stay separate or be combined, depending on how your meter is set up. The quote covers everything needed, so the price is fixed before we start, and both boards are tested and certified on the same visit.
No. Charging times are controlled by your meter or a time switch, not by the consumer unit. We reconnect the off peak circuits exactly as they were supplied, test them and confirm they are working. If your timings already seem wrong, your energy supplier is the one to contact about the meter.
Warmth after a night of storage heating suggests a connection or fuse carrier is struggling with the load, so do not ignore it. If you notice scorching, a burning smell or crackling, switch off at the main switch if it is safe and call us. Replacing the board removes the worn parts and remakes every connection.
