Hamlet houses with country supplies

As a hamlet, Silverhill is a small group of homes rather than a village with a centre of its own, and everyday services are found in the larger villages nearby. Homes in a settlement like this tend to be individual: older cottages, farm properties and twentieth century houses, often on generous plots and extended over the years, with the board tucked into a hallway cupboard or under the stairs.

Extensions matter because each one usually added circuits to the original board, sometimes on whatever spare way was left. When we change the board we trace and label every circuit, so you end up with a schedule that tells you exactly what each breaker controls.

  • Circuits traced and labelled
  • Extension wiring tested
  • Schedule of circuits provided
  • Dual RCD boards from £425

When your earth comes from a rod in the ground

In rural parishes like this, many homes are fed by overhead lines, and a good number use TT earthing: rather than taking an earth from the network, the house has its own electrode, usually a copper rod in the ground near the meter. On a TT supply the RCD protection is what disconnects a fault quickly, so it has to be right.

As part of the board change we measure the resistance of your earth rod, check its connection and the condition of the earthing conductor, and choose RCD protection that suits a TT system. If the reading is poor, we tell you plainly and explain what is needed to put it right.

  • Earth rod resistance measured
  • Earthing conductor checked
  • RCDs chosen for TT systems
  • Poor readings explained

No. The Silverhill on this page is the hamlet in Hurst Green parish, with a TN19 postcode. The Silverhill in St Leonards is part of the Hastings area. We cover both, with no travel charge anywhere in Sussex, but the postcode helps us plan the right journey and expect the right type of supply.

Look near your meter for a green and yellow cable. If it connects to the network's cable head, you are probably on a network earth. If it disappears through the wall or floor towards the garden, or you can see a rod in a small pit outside, you are likely on TT. A photo of the meter area usually lets us confirm it.

Not automatically. If the existing rod gives a satisfactory reading and its connections are sound, it stays. We test it on the day as part of the full inspection that comes with every board change. Rods that are corroded, loose or giving high readings are the ones that need attention, and we explain the result before anything else is done.
