Beside the Pulborough Brooks reserve

Fuse Box Replacement in Wiggonholt

Few homes stand at Wiggonholt, a Parham parish hamlet north west of Storrington, beside the RSPB's Pulborough Brooks reserve. Out here, many homes take their supply from overhead lines and rely on their own earth rod, so when we change a fuse box the earthing gets tested as carefully as the new board.

A few homes in open country

There are only a few homes at Wiggonholt, set among farmland and the wet grassland of the brooks. Properties like these were wired one at a time, often extended and partly rewired over many decades, and they very often rely on a supply that arrives on poles across the fields rather than in a cable under a pavement.

Our survey covers the incoming supply, the main earth and every final circuit. Dual RCD protection, from £425, is usually enough for a small home; properties with outbuildings or lots of circuits are better served by full RCBO protection, from £625.

  • Incoming supply inspected
  • Main earth verified
  • Outbuildings considered
  • Dual RCD from £425

Where your earth comes from a rod

Many rural homes are on a TT earthing system, where safety depends on an earth electrode driven into the ground at the property rather than an earth provided by the network. RCD protection is essential on a TT supply, because without it an old fuse box can leave a fault on a metal appliance live and unnoticed.

We measure the electrode resistance and check its condition and connections as part of every board change. If the rod is damaged or the reading is too high, we tell you and price a replacement. Surge protection comes as standard, which is worthwhile on overhead lines exposed to lightning induced spikes.

  • Earth electrode measured
  • RCD protection on every circuit
  • Type 2 surge protection
  • Rod replacement priced if needed
Getting to you

Out on the Pulborough road

Wiggonholt sits a little beyond Storrington on the road to Pulborough. We come along the A27, inland on the A283 by way of Steyning and Washington, then on through Storrington. No travel charge is added. If storms or a fault cut your power, our aim is a visit that same day, while quotes from photos come back quickly.

Look near the meter for a green and yellow cable that leads outside or down into a small pit in the ground, often with a warning label attached. That usually means an earth rod. We confirm the arrangement on our visit, test it properly and record it on your certificate, so you always know what you have.

Possibly, but not always. Overhead lines are affected by weather, and faults on the supply itself are for UK Power Networks to investigate. Repeated tripping inside the home can also come from a failing RCD or a fault on one circuit. Our tests show which it is, and with a full RCBO board, one fault no longer takes out everything.

Often, yes. Same day visits for a total loss of power are offered whenever our diary allows. Planned board changes are booked for a date that suits you, with no extra charge added for a rural address.
