# Emergency call-out & make safe in Chipstead

> Emergency call out in Chipstead isolates the danger and leaves the rest for a later booking. The supply from the road stays buried. · Call 07460 070551

An emergency visit in Chipstead makes the dangerous circuit safe and stops there. The long supply in from the road is not dug up, and the stable feed is not upgraded on that call.


## What a Chipstead emergency visit covers

The figure is the attendance and the work that removes the danger. Anything we fit to remove the danger is on the figure only when it really was fitted. A board change or a new stable feed is not in the figure.
- Emergency electrician: from £80 an hour; from £80 an hour
- Digging the incoming supply is outside this call.
- A full inspection report is a different appointment.
- The repair of the cause is booked after the danger is gone.

## What happens on the day

We find the circuit that is dangerous, isolate it, and leave the installation safe to be repaired later. Houses on How Lane and Hazelwood Lane may have a supply that runs a long way in from the road. That run is not excavated on this visit. A consumer unit is not replaced because it looks older or newer than the cable. A stable or garden room is isolated only when the danger is in that building.

### Isolate the circuit at risk

Whatever breaker or fuse feeds the danger is turned off and labelled. Other circuits that test as safe are left in use.

### Leave the ground closed

No trench is opened between the road and the house. A fault that seems to sit on that long run is written down, not dug on this call.

### Write what has to happen next

The note says what was isolated and what the repair would be. The repair itself, including any feed to a stable, is a later booking.

## Questions about a Chipstead emergency visit


### Will you find the fault and repair it?

We remove the danger. Tracing the cause so it can be repaired properly is the next booking, not this call.

### Do you dig if the fault is on the incoming supply?

No. On the valley slopes that supply runs a long way in from the road. This visit isolates at the board and writes what was found.

### Is the stable upgraded if its feed is small?

No. A feed that is too small for a stable is not rebuilt while we are making another circuit safe. It is named and left for its own job.

### Will the consumer unit be replaced?

Not on this call. A unit that fronts older cabling stays until a board change is booked. We only isolate what is dangerous.

### What should be said when you call?

What has gone off or what looks unsafe, and which building. A house on How Lane and a garden room are different places to start.
