Thatched Historic Listed Building EICR in Horseheath – comprehensive inspecting & testing carried out by JDH Electrics. Do you need an EICR? Contact us today – Qualified Electrician & free estimates!

During the inspecting & testing, some observations were found which will need further action, such as replacement electrical supplies to the various outbuildings, and dividing of circuits in the main house to prevent overloading and nuisance tripping. The kitchen sockets circuit has been spurred off multiple times, including to a second consumer unit in the annex which will need a dedicated distribution circuit installing for the outbuilding.

Our team today carried out a comprehensive Electrical installation Condition Report to a beautiful thatched, listed cottage. Whilst the installation as a whole was generally satisfactory we identified some areas of improvement such as replacing a deteriorated cable to the outbuildings and adding more sockets due to insufficient outlets with too many extension leads, posing a fire risk!

Our latest project has been carrying out a historic listed building rewire at a beautiful Grade 2* Listed historic building in West Malling, Kent.

The comprehensive rewire was carefully carried out by our electricians bringing the installation up to the latest standards. Sockets have been added throughout, lighting also telephone and sky satellite wiring

Listed building consent was obtained for the planned works, with comprehensive wiring designs by our team

One of the objectives of the project was to add functionality to the wiring, yet minimising also removing cables from being on show

We installed a large sub-main circuit to the outbuildings and a secondary consumer unit

With the cabling being on show and clipped to the surface of the walls & timbers, care had to be taken with cable routes

The various fuse boards throughout the property were consolidated into a single RCBO consumer unit, including a Surge Protection Device
