Houses in Woodmancote and the boards behind them
As a small hamlet rather than a built up village, Woodmancote has no standard house type, and rural homes like these have usually been renovated at different times by different owners. The fuse box tends to reflect the last major renovation rather than the age of the building, which is why photos matter before we quote.
Typical finds in rural homes include a single RCD protecting everything, so one faulty kettle can leave the freezer off, and boards that have run out of spare ways after extensions. A simple layout is well served by a dual RCD board, which starts from £425; in larger homes, a full RCBO board, starting from £625, gives every circuit a device of its own.
- Single RCD boards replaced
- Extensions given spare ways
- Freezer kept on its own circuit
- Dual RCD from £425

TT earthing in Woodmancote: why it changes the job
In the countryside, properties fed by overhead lines often get no earth from the network and depend instead on an earth rod sunk into the soil. This is called a TT system. It works well when the rod and its connections are sound, but it leaves your safety resting heavily on RCD protection, so the board and how it is arranged matter more than usual.
Where a property is TT, we test the resistance of the earth electrode, inspect the rod and its cable, and pick RCD arrangements to match. If the rod is missing, corroded or reading too high, we tell you and price a replacement before going any further.
- Earth electrode resistance measured
- Rod and clamp checked
- RCDs arranged for TT
- Surge protection on every board
Getting to you
Finding you in Woodmancote, west of Chichester
From Brighton & Hove we travel west along the A27 beyond Chichester, and we make sure your installer heads for Westbourne parish rather than the Woodmancote near Henfield. Include your postcode with the photos when you book, which removes any doubt, and should the supply fail, a phone call gets you same day help where possible.

Woodmancote questions
Asked in Woodmancote
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691Both, as it happens, since we cover all of Sussex, but this page is for the hamlet in Westbourne parish, Chichester District, with PO10 postcodes. Adding your postcode to the photos you text us means the installer heads for the right Woodmancote first time.
It means your earth comes from a rod in the ground rather than from the network's cable. Look near the meter for a green and yellow cable heading outside or down into the floor, sometimes to a small inspection pit. Not sure? Add a picture of the meter area to your text, and we can tell you which you have.
Yes. Testing the whole installation is part of every board change, and on a TT supply that includes measuring the earth electrode resistance. That reading is written into your Electrical Installation Certificate, which you will have by email inside 48 hours, giving you a record should you sell the house or add an EV charger later.
