Do I need to replace my old fuse box?
Not always. If it still has rewireable fuses (the wire-in-a-carrier type), no RCD protection, or a plastic casing under a staircase, it's worth upgrading. A lot of Cullompton homes (market-town terraces and 1960s–90s estates) still have boards from the 1980s or older. An electrician can test it first and tell you honestly.
Do you cover the villages round Cullompton, like Willand and Uffculme?
We do. The fuse box replacement prices on this page already include jobs in Willand, Uffculme, Kentisbeare, Bradninch. Village visits are usually booked on the same days as Cullompton work, so the next slot (in 2 days) normally applies to you too.

Cullompton typically comes in at £600 and Tiverton at £625, with Devon as a whole around £580. The gap is mostly down to property type and travel, so a quote from a firm in either town is worth having.
Who looks after the cable into my house in Cullompton?
National Grid (South West) owns the supply cable, the main fuse and the cutout in EX15. Your electrician can't touch those. If the cutout is cracked, scorched or old, they'll report it, and National Grid (South West) usually replaces it free.
How much is a new consumer unit in Cullompton?
Typically £600 fitted, tested and certified. A straight swap starts around £465. A full RCBO board, or one that needs earthing or bonding fixed, pushes it towards £780. Faults found on testing are the usual reason a price goes up, so ask how they handle that.

Do I need consent for fuse box replacement in a listed building in Cullompton?
If the work changes the building's character, yes, you need listed building consent from Mid Devon District Council. New cable routes through old plaster, visible kit on the front and roof panels are the usual triggers. Like-for-like repairs usually don't. Ask the conservation officer first; it's free.
The whole street's lost power in Cullompton. Who do I ring?
Call 105, free from any phone. That goes to National Grid (South West), who look after the lines in EX15. It isn't an electrician's job if the neighbours are off too. If only your house is off, check the fuse box first, then call an electrician.
Can I swap old storage heaters and the Economy 7 box in Cullompton?
Yes. Many Cullompton homes still have two boards, one for off-peak heaters. An electrician can merge them into one modern board and wire panel heaters or new storage heaters. It counts as notifiable work, so use a registered firm and get the certificate. Typical cost here is £600.
What's different about electrics in farmhouses near Cullompton?
Overhead supplies out in the country around Cullompton often have their own earth rod (a TT system), so RCD protection and rod tests matter more. Old outbuildings, long cable runs and damp barns are the other usual issues. Allow a bit longer, and budget nearer £780 for big properties.
Do I need a certificate for fuse box replacement?
Yes. Most of this work is notifiable under Part P, so you should get a certificate and building-control notice for Mid Devon District Council.
