Cottages and family houses
Older village homes with modern demands
Around the centre of Plaistow you will find older cottages and houses alongside newer homes, many of them enlarged since they were built. Their fuse boxes tend to show that history: original fuse carriers in some, a replacement unit from decades ago in others, and in many cases a board now feeding far more than it was ever meant to.
Fixed prices run from £425 for six ways with dual RCDs, through £495 for ten, to £575 for twelve ways in a high integrity layout. Putting every circuit on its own RCBO costs £625 for eight ways, and the surge protector, a Type 2 unit, is covered by that figure as well.

- Clear labels on every way

Preparing the board for a heat pump
If your Plaistow home runs on an oil or LPG boiler, an air source heat pump may well be on your list at some point. A heat pump needs its own dedicated circuit, and often a circuit for an immersion or booster heater too, so a full or worn out board can become the first obstacle. Planning the board change with that in mind saves paying twice.
We look at your main fuse rating, the spare ways you will need and the size of the meter tails. Where the supply itself may need increasing, that is a matter for UK Power Networks, and we can tell you what to ask them before your heating installer books in.

Plaistow questions
Asked in Plaistow
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Yes, and it is often the sensible order. We fit a board with spare ways reserved for the heat pump and any immersion, so your heating engineer can connect to it without a second board change. Tell us roughly what you are considering when you text your photos, and we will size the board to suit.
Increasing the supply to a property, or changing the main fuse, is work for UK Power Networks rather than us, because it sits on their side of the meter. What we can do is record your current main fuse size, estimate the load you are planning, and give you the details they normally ask for when you apply.
No. Plaistow sits within our area, and getting there adds nothing to your bill. When resetting the switches has not brought the power back, phone us. Where we can, someone gets to you that same day, and you will get an honest idea of when to expect us.
