A Costain semi on Shelvers Way is stopped and requoted if the circuit already there cannot feed the new point. ### Test the new point The new point and the circuit that feeds it are tested.

We fit one extra outlet, or replace a switch plate, on the circuit already there at Merland Rise, on Preston Lane and on Shelvers Way, then test it. ### Is this the same as shop sockets? No. Commercial power is a separate service. This visit is one domestic point on the circuit already feeding that room. ### What if the circuit cannot feed the new point? We stop. A Costain semi on Shelvers Way is quoted a new run instead of overloading the circuit that is there. ### Do you change the fuse board as well? No. A board change is its own price. One socket on Preston Lane does not become a board replacement. ### When is a minor works form completed? When the change needs one. The new point and its circuit are tested either way. Merland Rise gets the form only if that alteration requires it. ## Other services in Tadworth - [Electrician in Tadworth](https://www.tmbelectrics.co.uk/electrician-tadworth): Tadworth electrician for new circuits, outbuildings and domestic work, scoped around actual equipment and existing supply. - [Socket and switch installation (all areas)](https://www.tmbelectrics.co.uk/services/socket-switch-installation-domestic): Socket and switch installation from TMB Electrics starts from £80.
