What happens on the day

We switch off the unsafe circuit and leave other circuits on only where that is true. If the house has a unit in the garage, annexe or outbuilding, the note says which one was isolated. A Costain house is not stripped of its additions and its original wiring on this visit. The lasting repair is booked once the cause is clear. Houses on Woodland Way that want extra circuits are not treated as an emergency for that reason.

  • Name which board went offThe note says whether the house board or the garage, annexe or outbuilding board was switched off. The two are not described as one board.
  • Leave the additions in placeA Costain house is made safe at the circuit that failed. The later additions and the original wiring are not taken out together on this visit.
  • Write the next stepBefore we leave Warren Drive we note the board that went off and the repair that has to be booked next.

Questions about making a Kingswood circuit safe

Still have a question?

If the house board is off, does the garage go off?

Only when that garage is fed from the house board. Many Kingswood houses have a separate unit in the garage. The note records what actually went off.

Will a Costain house be rewired on this visit?

No. The failed circuit is isolated. The additions and the original wiring stay. A rewire is booked later if the tests say it is needed.

Is wanting extra circuits on Woodland Way an emergency?

No. Newer houses there generally want extra circuits rather than a rewire. This visit is an unsafe circuit, not a wish list.

What is written down?

The note names the board switched off, what remained live, and the repair to book next. A garage or annexe unit is named if that was the one isolated.

Is this the same as fault finding?

No. This visit removes the danger. Finding what failed, and putting that right, is a later booking at that house.
