Rural homes beyond the village
Where electricity does the heavy lifting
Away from village centres, homes are less likely to be on mains gas, so heating and hot water often rely on electricity in some form: storage heaters, an immersion heater, an electric boiler, or the pumps and controls of an oil system. Several of these run on dedicated circuits, some switched by an off peak meter, which makes the board busier than in a gas heated house.
Older installations of this kind often have a separate board for the off peak circuits alongside the main one. We check how your meter and tariff are arranged before quoting, then decide whether the circuits can come together on one unit or whether the split needs to stay.
- Storage heater circuits checked
- Off peak boards assessed
- Immersion and boiler circuits tested
- Meter arrangement confirmed first

Thinking about a heat pump?
Moving from oil or storage heaters to a heat pump
Many households without mains gas are now looking at air source heat pumps, often with grant support. A heat pump needs its own correctly protected circuit, and the installer will check that your supply, main fuse and board can take the load. An old fuse box, or a unit with no spare ways, usually has to be dealt with first.
Doing the board before the heat pump arrives keeps things simple. The replacement unit is chosen with ways to spare, which for a bigger house could mean a full RCBO board with 14 or 16 ways at £795, and we write down any supply questions you will need to put to UK Power Networks. Surge protection helps shield the heat pump's electronics.

Quickbourne questions
Asked in Quickbourne
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Sometimes. It depends on how the off peak supply is metered and switched. If the meter has a separate output for the heaters, the two groups of circuits usually need to stay apart, though both can be given modern protection. Photos of the meter and both boards let us tell you which applies before we quote.
If the immersion element has started leaking to earth, an RCD will keep tripping whatever board you have, because the fault is real. We test the element and its circuit, and if that is the cause you will know. A failing element is a common culprit, and replacing it is a straightforward plumbing or heating job.
It depends on how many circuits you have and what you may add. For a modest cottage, dual RCD protection across 10 ways at £495 may be plenty; a bigger house with heating circuits, outbuildings and plans for the future is better off with RCBOs across 14 or 16 ways, at £795. We recommend a size from your photos.
