# Socket and switch installation in Wallington

> Socket installation in Wallington is a tested spur or its own circuit. Wide road boards that cannot feed an extension are not given another spur.

Sockets in Wallington are a tested spur or a circuit of their own. A 1930s semi whose original board cannot feed the extension usually needs the new circuit, not another spur.


## How Wallington sockets are costed

A spur that passed its test, or a new circuit that was then fitted, is what this price covers. Changing the board on a wide road semi is not hidden inside one socket. A charger at Roundshaw is not hidden there either.
- Socket installation: from £80
- A spur that does not pass its test is left unfitted.
- Faces beyond the number named are counted first.
- The shop and the flat are not one socket price.

## What happens on the day

A new socket is either a spur the existing circuit can take or a circuit of its own. On the wide roads, 1930s semis are carrying extensions the original board was never meant for, so another spur is not assumed. Roundshaw houses rebuilt from 1998 more often need another circuit, and that circuit is written as one. A socket in a flat over a Woodcote Road shop stays on the flat.

### Let the test choose

The circuit already there is tested before a spur is considered. Where it has no capacity, the socket is planned as its own circuit.

### Keep the flat off the shop

A socket in a flat over a Woodcote Road shop is planned on the flat's side. The shop is not opened to feed that socket.

### Say when the board is the limit

If a wide road board cannot feed the extension and the new socket, the socket waits. The board is not pretended to have room.

## Questions about Wallington sockets


### When is a 1930s house a new circuit?

When the board and the circuit cannot take another socket. Those original boards were not meant for the extensions now on the house, and the test says which it is.

### Do Roundshaw homes default to a rewire?

No. Houses rebuilt from 1998 usually ask for another circuit. A socket circuit is one of those, if the board has room.

### Can a flat take a spur from the shop?

No. The flat over the Woodcote Road shops stays on its own side of the incoming supply. The shop is not used to feed that socket.

### Are villas on Belmont Road short of ways?

They are checked. The installation is already long. Spare ways are counted, not assumed because the house is large.

### Are outside sockets included?

An external socket on the house wall can be included if it was named. Lamps set further into the garden belong to outdoor lighting.
