Cottages off the main road
Rural homes in a tiny hamlet
River is small, a scattering of rural homes rather than a village with a centre, and the houses are the sort found all along this stretch of the county: older cottages and houses, many altered and extended over time. Each change tends to leave its mark on the electrics, often as an extra fuse box or switch fuse added beside the original.
It is common for us to find two or three separate units on one wall: the main fuse box, an off peak board for heaters and a switch for the immersion. We bring them together where the meter arrangement allows, which tidies the wall and makes the installation far easier to understand.
- Separate fuse boxes combined
- Old switch fuses removed
- Immersion heater circuit checked
- Clear labels on every way

Storage heaters and Economy 7 homes
Plenty of homes in the small hamlets west of Petworth have no mains gas, and some are heated with electric storage heaters charged overnight on Economy 7 or a similar off peak tariff. These setups usually involve a two rate meter, sometimes a separate time switch or teleswitch, and a second set of circuits that only come alive at night.
A new board has to respect that. We identify which circuits are on the off peak supply, check that heater cables are sized for their load, and keep the switching working as your supplier intended. If you are thinking of replacing storage heaters with a heat pump later, we leave room for it.
- Off peak circuits identified
- Heater cable sizes checked
- Two rate meter arrangement kept
- Room left for future heating

Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Both, in a sense. As a hamlet it has its own identity, yet it falls inside Tillington civil parish and shares the GU28 Petworth postcode district. For booking, the house name and postcode are what matter, and we cover it with no travel charge, just like everywhere else in Sussex.
Yes. Storage heaters simply need suitably rated circuits from the off peak side of the supply. We check each circuit's cable and protection, make sure every heater circuit goes back to the correct side of the meter arrangement, and test them before we leave. Tell us your tariff when you send photos.
Often, yes. A single modern board can carry both day and night circuits where the meter has a suitable output, though some off peak arrangements need a small second unit to stay separate. We explain which applies from your photos before quoting, so you know exactly what the finished wall will look like.
