Common questions
Socket Installation in Chatham FAQs
Can you add extra sockets to my Chatham home?
Yes, our approved engineers install additional sockets throughout Chatham for homeowners who need more outlets in their kitchen, living room, home office, bedroom, or garage. We can fit standard single or double sockets, USB-A and USB-C combination outlets, and outdoor weatherproof sockets depending on your requirements.
Do I need an electrician to add sockets in Chatham?
Adding new sockets in Chatham is notifiable work under Part P of the Building Regulations, which means it must be either carried out by a registered electrician who can self-certify the work, or a building notice submitted to the local authority. Our approved NICEIC registered electricians carry out the installation and provide you with the correct certificate on completion.
How many sockets can be added to an existing circuit in a Chatham home?
The number of additional sockets that can be added to an existing circuit depends on the total load already on that circuit and the cable rating. In most Chatham homes, a ring main circuit can accommodate additional sockets within limits, but if the circuit is already heavily loaded or if sockets are needed in a location that cannot be practically connected to the existing ring, we may need to run a new circuit. This is assessed properly before starting.
Can you install outdoor sockets at my Chatham property?
Yes, our approved engineers install outdoor sockets across Chatham using weatherproof fittings rated for external use. Outdoor sockets are particularly useful in gardens, on patios, for garden lighting, and in garages or outbuildings. All outdoor socket work is carried out to the correct standard and positioned so the cable routing is safe and properly protected.
How long does socket installation take in Chatham?
Adding a single socket or a pair of sockets to an existing circuit in a Chatham property typically takes between one and two hours. Running a new circuit back to the consumer unit, or installing sockets in multiple rooms, will take longer. We will give you an honest time estimate when we confirm the quote.
