The homes of Punnett's Town and their boards

The houses in Punnett's Town are a mix of ages, with older cottages alongside twentieth century homes and later houses. The boards inside vary just as much. In homes left untouched for decades we find wooden backed fuse boxes, and in houses updated once and then left alone, early plastic consumer units with a single RCD covering everything.

A single RCD board means one fault can take out every socket and light at once. Splitting the load across two RCDs costs from £425, while full RCBO, from £625, gives each circuit a guard of its own, so one faulty circuit no longer plunges the whole house into darkness.

  • Wooden backed fuse boxes replaced
  • Single RCD boards upgraded
  • Dual RCD from £425
  • RCBO per circuit from £625

Surge protection for a supply in open country

Many homes on the higher ground east of Heathfield are fed through overhead lines that cross open country. Lightning strikes nearby and switching on the network can send short voltage spikes down those lines. You rarely notice them, but they can shorten the life of boilers, routers, televisions and anything else with electronics inside.

Each board we install in Punnett's Town carries Type 2 surge protection without any added charge. If your consumer unit is fairly new and otherwise sound, we can retrofit surge protection on its own for £165, provided there is room and the board is compatible.

  • Type 2 surge device included
  • Retrofit on its own for £165
  • Helps protect boiler electronics
  • Compatibility checked first

No device in a consumer unit can stop a direct strike on the house. A Type 2 surge protector is designed for the far more common case: spikes travelling in along the supply from strikes or switching elsewhere on the network. It limits the voltage reaching your circuits, which helps protect electronics from both sudden and gradual damage.

It is a common reason. With one RCD covering every circuit, a single fault anywhere switches off the whole house, including the freezer and any heating controls. Current practice is to split circuits across at least two RCDs, or to use RCBOs. We will look at the board and the wiring and tell you honestly whether replacement is worthwhile.

Everything electrical, for most of the visit. Most changes run to 4 to 6 hours, with the power off while the old board comes out, the new one goes in and everything is tested. Plan for the fridge and freezer to stay shut, charge phones beforehand and tell us about anything that must stay powered.
