Rural homes just outside the town

Although it shares a postcode with Crawley, Tilgate Forest Row is countryside: a small group of homes in Slaugham parish and Mid Sussex district, not one of the new town's planned neighbourhoods. Houses in a hamlet like this have usually been altered and extended over the years, and their fuse boxes often date from an earlier stage in the life of the house.

A new board puts every circuit under RCD protection, brings Type 2 surge protection with it and leaves room for anything you add later. £425 pays for six ways of dual RCD protection, £495 for ten, and full RCBO, where each circuit trips on its own, begins at £625.

  • Older boards replaced

  • Room for future additions

Why we test the wiring before switching on

An old fuse box only cuts the power when a fault is large enough to melt a fuse. A modern board with RCDs also reacts to small leaks of current to earth, which is what makes it safer. In older wiring, worn insulation, damp in an outside light or a borrowed neutral between circuits can hide for years and only show up once RCDs are fitted.

Insulation testing on every circuit is built into the work, so faults like these get found and explained instead of tripping the board once we have left. Most are simple to put right. If something needs more work, you get a clear explanation and we agree the next step with you first.

  • Insulation tested on every circuit
  • Borrowed neutrals found and explained
  • Damp outside fittings traced
  • Findings explained in plain English

Because it is more sensitive by design. Fuses only respond to large overloads or short circuits, while an RCD also spots small amounts of current leaking to earth through damaged insulation or damp. The leak was there before, just unnoticed. Our testing usually finds it on the day, so it can be dealt with straight away.

Not usually as a first step. If the cables are PVC and test well, a new board is all you need. A rewire is only worth considering where the tests show widespread deterioration, or where very old rubber insulated cable is still in use. We base that advice on the test results, not on guesswork.

Every way on the board is labelled before we leave, using the names you use for the rooms, and a circuit chart goes inside the door. Each circuit also appears on the Electrical Installation Certificate with its test readings, and that document is emailed to you no later than 48 hours after the work.
