What happens on the day

Large houses on the Ashtead Park side spread the supply over several boards and outbuildings. Work inside the building starts at the board that feeds it, not at a guess from the house. Cable that already runs out is tested before reuse. A new feed, where that test fails, is an armoured cable job and is not started in disguise. The building is worked from inside, and a new hole is avoided where an opening already exists.

  • Find the feeding boardOn the Ashtead Park side the outbuilding board is identified before the house boards are opened. Power inside the building is proved from that board, and the others are left closed.
  • Test the cable that is thereAn existing cable to the detached space is tested before it is reused for new sockets or lights. A working lamp in the building does not show that the cable can take more load.
  • Stay inside the buildingSockets, lights and a small board, where one is needed inside, are fixed from within. An opening that already exists is used for the cable. Cutting a new way out is named before it happens.

Ashtead outbuilding questions

Still have a question?

Which board feeds an outbuilding on the Ashtead Park side?

Often a board of its own. The supply on that side is spread over several boards and outbuildings, so the house consumer unit is not assumed to be the one in charge.

Can the old cable be reused?

Only if the test passes. Cable to a detached space is tested before reuse. A socket that works today is not spare capacity for a new load.

Is a new underground feed part of this visit?

No. If the existing cable fails, the new feed is the armoured cable job and is quoted on its own. It is not started as a quiet extra.

Do you cut a new hole out of the building?

Not where an opening already exists. A new way through is described first. Near Ashtead Park the outside position is also checked against trees and protected land.

Does a summerhouse on Park Lane need the same test?

Yes. The board that feeds it is found, and the cable already there is tested. The lane does not change the order of the work.
