Fuse box services for Wineham

Full RCBO consumer unit with surge protection, neatly wired and labelled in a Sussex home
Our standard installationFull RCBO board with surge protection
Scattered country properties

Farmhouses and cottages spread along the lanes

Wineham is a scattering of homes along country lanes rather than a village with a centre, and the properties are mostly detached farmhouses and cottages, many extended or joined by garages and outbuildings over the years. Each part tends to have been wired at a different time, so the board on the wall rarely tells the whole story of the circuits behind it.

That is why we test every circuit before and after the change, not only the new board. If an old cable cannot safely go back on, we stop and show you the readings rather than guessing. Full RCBO boards start at £625, and larger country homes often need 10 to 12 ways, which is £695.

  • Circuits tested before and after
  • Readings shown, not guessed
  • Garage and outbuilding feeds included
  • Board sized for the whole property

A major substation nearby, an ordinary supply at home

In the same parish, off Wineham Lane, stands National Grid's Bolney substation, and the Rampion offshore wind farm connects in beside it through a cable buried all the way up from the coast. Neighbours sometimes wonder whether living near all that equipment affects their own electrics. In short, it does not.

Your home is fed by UK Power Networks through the local low voltage network, just like a house in town, whether that arrives by overhead line or underground cable. What matters for your board is the earthing type, the condition of the cut-out and the main fuse rating, and we check all three.

  • Earthing arrangement confirmed
  • Main fuse rating noted
  • Cut-out condition reported
  • Type 2 surge protection fitted

Wineham questions

Asked in Wineham

Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.

Building Control notification goes to the authority for where the property actually stands, not the post town on your letters. Wineham sits in Mid Sussex, so that is where the Part P notification is registered. Within 48 hours your Electrical Installation Certificate lands in your inbox, with the compliance certificate to follow once the notification has been processed.

We include Type 2 surge protection on every board, so it is not an extra. Surges on the low voltage network can come from lightning on or near overhead lines and from switching on the network, and rural homes fed by long overhead runs are more exposed to the first. The device limits those spikes before they reach sensitive electronics.

Usually, yes. A clear photo of the open board, one of the meter and cut-out, and a note of anything unusual, such as a second board in a barn or garage, is normally enough for a fixed price. If the layout is complicated, we may suggest a short visit first so the figure is right.
