Older cottages to newer houses

One village, several building eras

Westfield has a mix of older cottages alongside post-war semis, bungalows and more recent family houses. The boards follow the same pattern. Older homes may still have a fuse box with rewireable fuses, mid-century houses often have an early plastic consumer unit, and newer homes may have RCD boards that are already short of spare ways.

Age alone does not decide whether a board needs changing. We look at the protection it gives, the condition of the cables feeding it and whether it can take the circuits you want to add. If your existing board is sound, we say so plainly.

  • Rewireable fuse boxes replaced
  • Early plastic units upgraded
  • Spare ways for new circuits
  • Straight advice if yours is fine

Making room for the next big load

If you are planning an EV charger on the drive, solar panels with a battery or an air source heat pump, each one needs its own protected circuit. An older board rarely has the space or the right type of protection, and an EV charger in particular needs careful thought about RCD type and earthing.

We size the board with ways to spare, for example 14 to 16 of them on a full RCBO unit at £795, so whoever installs the charger or heat pump finds a free way ready to use. If your main fuse may be too small for the combined load, we explain how to ask UK Power Networks about an upgrade.

  • Ways reserved for chargers and inverters
  • Main fuse checked against your plans
  • Ready for later heat pump circuits
  • Building Control notified under Part P

Not always. If your board has a spare way, suitable protection and a sound earthing arrangement, the charger may connect to it as it is. Many older units fall short on at least one of those points. We check from your photos and tell you honestly whether a board change is needed first.

An arc fault detection device watches for the tiny sparks caused by damaged cables or loose connections, which can start fires. They are not required in every home. A board combining RCBOs and AFDDs costs £1,095 with 10 ways or £1,295 with 14, and we will point out where the extra protection is most worthwhile.

It may not. Some units from that era protect only part of the house with an RCD, or have no spare ways left for new circuits. Others are perfectly serviceable. We look at your photos before advising, and if your board is fine you get a straight answer rather than a sales pitch.
