Fuse Box Replacement in Twineham Green

Twineham Green lies west of Burgess Hill, within the rural parish of Twineham. Before any old fuse box here gives way to a modern consumer unit, we check the earthing with care, since even the best board is only as good as the earth behind it.

What a small hamlet's boards tend to look like

A place the size of Twineham Green is made up of a small number of houses and cottages, many altered and extended over the decades. In homes like these we expect boards that were changed once, perhaps in the 1980s or 1990s, and then added to piece by piece as kitchens, showers and garages were wired in.

If that sounds familiar, a full RCBO board is usually the tidier answer, because each circuit gets its own protection and one fault no longer drops several others with it. An 8 way RCBO board is £625 and 10 to 12 ways is £695, both with surge protection included.

  • Added circuits brought together
  • One RCBO per circuit
  • Shower and cooker circuits checked
  • Garage supply properly protected

Checking the earth rod as well as the board

Where a rural house is fed by overhead lines, it often runs on a TT earthing system, taking its earth from a metal rod sunk in the ground instead of from the supply cable. Whether a Twineham Green house is TT or not, we confirm the arrangement before starting, because it changes how the new board must be protected.

With a TT supply, we test the resistance of the earth electrode and look over the rod and its clamp, both of which can corrode or get knocked during garden work. RCD protection is essential on these systems, and every board we fit provides it. If the rod needs replacing, we tell you why and price it before doing anything.

  • Earthing type confirmed first
  • Earth rod resistance measured
  • Rod clamp and cable inspected
  • RCD protection on every circuit
Getting to you

Reaching Twineham Green from the A23

We come up the A23, leave at Hickstead and take the lanes west, which keeps the journey short on most days. We never charge for travel. Pictures of the consumer unit and meter let us fix the price in advance, and if a fault has cut your power, phone us and we get out the same day when the diary allows.

Look near the meter for a thick green and yellow cable running down through the floor or out through the wall, sometimes to a small inspection pit outside. A label near the meter may also mention an earth electrode. The simplest route is to text us photos of the meter, cut-out and board, as we can usually tell from those.

With an earth rod, the resistance of the path back to the supply is much higher than with a cable earth, so a fault may not draw enough current to blow a fuse or trip a breaker quickly. An RCD detects the small imbalance a fault causes and disconnects in a fraction of a second, which is what keeps the house safe.

Not for the board change itself. If the earth rod tests well, it stays exactly as it is. If it reads high or is damaged, a new rod is normally driven in close to the meter position with very little disturbance, and we agree the spot with you first. Any extra work is quoted before it starts.
