Older homes on country lanes
West Ashling's older houses and their electrics
Small hamlets on the coastal plain, West Ashling included, have a good share of older cottages and houses, many extended over time. Where an original fuse box survives in homes like these, it may still use rewireable fuse wire or cartridge fuses, with no RCD to cut the power quickly if someone touches a live fault.
Replacing it puts every circuit behind modern RCD protection and gets the whole installation inspected and tested at the same visit. Most smaller cottages need nothing more than dual RCD protection, from £425, and adding a full EICR report to the board change costs only £99.
- Rewireable fuses replaced
- Cartridge fuse boards upgraded
- RCD protection on every circuit
- EICR with a board £99

Planning a West Ashling board around a future heat pump
Rural homes beyond the reach of the gas main often heat with oil, LPG or electric storage heaters. If yours is one of them, the fuse box may one day need to supply an air source heat pump, perhaps with solar panels or a battery alongside. That is a big change in load and in what the board has to protect.
Fitting the right board now saves paying twice. We leave dedicated ways for the heat pump and any immersion or battery circuits, match the RCD types to the equipment, and tell you whether the incoming supply may need upgrading by the network operator first.
- Heat pump ways reserved
- Immersion and battery circuits
- RCD types matched to kit
- Supply capacity flagged early

West Ashling questions
Asked in West Ashling
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Before, or at the same time, is usually best. The heat pump installer will want a board with a spare way and suitable RCD protection, and doing the board first means their work is simpler. Tell us the model you are considering and we will plan the board around it.
Enough for what you can reasonably foresee: a heat pump, an EV charger, solar or a battery, and perhaps a garden building. For £495 you get a 10 way board with dual RCDs, and for £695 a full RCBO board with 10 to 12 ways, both with room to grow. We will suggest a size from your photos.
Yes. Should the current fuse box be in a damp porch, a bedroom cupboard or some other awkward spot, moving it while we replace it adds £250. Moving a board without replacing it is £395. We check the new position suits the meter tails and any future heat pump cabling.
