Hamlet by a Benedictine abbey
Fuse Box Replacement in Worth Abbey
The hamlet of Worth Abbey, in Turners Hill parish east of Crawley, takes its name from the Benedictine monastery it sits beside. Homes and cottages around it can trade an old fuse box for a modern consumer unit, with the price agreed up front, and a rural address adds nothing to the bill.

Only a handful of homes
Few houses, and no two boards alike
Beyond the abbey and Worth School there are only a few private homes, and in a hamlet this small there is no standard house to describe. We could find rewireable fuses in a cottage, a newer unit in a house that has been extended, or one supply shared between a home and an annexe. So we look carefully before quoting.
Usually one picture by text, showing both board and meter, lets us fix the price. Most homes come down to a choice between dual RCD at £425 upwards and full RCBO at £625 upwards, and either one includes surge protection to Type 2. The whole property is tested before we hand over.

Woodland lanes and power cuts
When a storm takes the power out
The country around Worth Abbey is well wooded, and where overhead lines run close to trees, a winter gale can bring a branch down and the supply with it. Faults on the network are for UK Power Networks to fix, and you can report them by calling 105. What happens inside your home, though, depends on your consumer unit.
Some rural households keep a portable generator for long cuts. It must never be connected by plugging it into a socket, because it can feed power back into the network and endanger the people repairing it. If you use one, tell us when we change the board and we will explain how a proper changeover switch keeps it separate.
- Power cuts reported on 105
- No generator back feeding
- Changeover advice given

Getting to you
Reaching the wooded lanes east of Crawley
We take the A23 and M23 past Crawley and finish on quieter roads towards Turners Hill, so tell us about gates, long drives or tricky turnings when you book. A failed board gets a same day response whenever we can manage it, while planned work goes in on a date of your choosing.

Worth Abbey questions
Asked in Worth Abbey
Still not sure?
Call for a straight answer from an installer, not a call centre.
Call 0333 360 8691The owner of the property needs to approve a board change, so if you rent or live in a tied home, ask them first. We are happy to send the fixed quote straight to whoever looks after the building, arrange access with you, and send the Electrical Installation Certificate to both of you once the work is done.
A healthy board should not trip just because the supply returns. When it does, there is often a circuit or appliance leaking a little current to earth, which pushes an older shared RCD over the edge. Our testing finds the cause, and with an RCBO board one faulty circuit trips on its own instead of everything going off.
Clear access to the consumer unit and the meter, somewhere to park, and someone to let us in and agree the plan first thing. The power will be off for much of the four to six hours. Before we leave we show you the new board, explain the labels, and confirm when the certificate will arrive.
