A village spread across the countryside
Tidebrook does not have the tight village centre of Wadhurst or Mayfield. Its homes are spread out along the lanes, and that brings a different set of electrical needs: longer supply runs, outbuildings and, in many cases, oil or LPG heating rather than mains gas. The older the house, the more likely its wiring has been extended piece by piece.
A board change puts all of that onto one modern consumer unit with each circuit properly protected. Your photos fix the price, which runs from £425 for six ways of dual RCD protection up to £795 for full RCBO across 14 to 16 ways in a larger house.

Power cuts, generators and your consumer unit
Overhead lines through wooded countryside are more exposed to storms than buried town cables, so rural households tend to see more interruptions. Some keep a portable generator for those days. Connecting one by plugging it into a socket, or by any other improvised method, is dangerous: it can feed power back into the network and put the people repairing the line at risk.
The safe way is a proper changeover switch, so the house runs from either the mains or the generator, never both. If you would like one, tell us when you send photos and we can plan the new board around it and quote separately. For the power cut itself, ring 105.

- No backfeeding into the network

Getting to you
Our route to Tidebrook
We usually drive through Heathfield and on north towards Mayfield, then along the lanes into Wadhurst parish. You pay nothing for the travel. Book from a photo quote at a time that suits you. A failed board that leaves the house without power should be reported to us by phone, and being with you that day is what we work towards.

Tidebrook questions
Asked in Tidebrook
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Not through a socket, and never with a home made lead. That can make the house wiring live from the wrong direction and endanger anyone working on the overhead line. A generator needs a correctly installed changeover switch and inlet. We can plan for one alongside your new consumer unit and give you a separate fixed quote.
Ask a neighbour whether they have lost power too, and look at your board. If a switch or RCD has dropped, the problem is most likely inside your home. If nothing has tripped and others are off as well, it is a network fault, and calling 105 puts you through to UK Power Networks.
No board can prevent a network fault, because that happens on the lines outside. What a modern board does is protect each of your circuits properly and, with the Type 2 surge protection we include as standard, limit the voltage spikes that storms and network switching can send down an overhead supply into your home.
