Sheerness is the largest town on the Isle of Sheppey and it has a substantial stock of older terraced and semi detached housing that keeps us busy with a range of electrical work. We were called to a semi in Sheerness where the owner had been having recurring trips on the consumer unit — specifically the circuit feeding the kitchen. The unit was an old dual consumer unit with a single RCD covering everything, and the kitchen circuit was overloaded with no dedicated supply for the oven. We replaced the consumer unit, ran a dedicated circuit for the oven with its own isolation switch, and the tripping stopped immediately.
I am George, I run Eru Electrics Ltd, and I am a NICEIC registered electrician with 25 years of experience and a Which? Trusted Trader. We cover Sheerness and the surrounding area including Queenborough, Minster on Sea, and Halfway.
The rental market in Sheerness is significant and EICRs form a regular part of our workload here. We also see a lot of fault finding calls — older properties with wiring that has never been comprehensively reviewed tend to develop intermittent faults that can be tricky to diagnose if you do not know what to look for.

My consumer unit keeps tripping — what causes that?
The most common causes are an overloaded circuit, a failing appliance on that circuit, or a wiring fault. We diagnose the cause before recommending any work so you know exactly what is being fixed and why.
Do you carry out EICRs in Sheerness?
Yes regularly. We cover the full island and issue the certificate the same day for most properties.
How long does fault finding take?
It depends on the fault. Simple causes are usually identified within the first hour. More complex intermittent faults take longer to trace but we will give you a clear picture of what we find before recommending any work.
How quickly can you get to Sheerness?
Within the week. My PA will confirm the time.
Do you cover Halfway and Minster on Sea?
Yes both are well within our area.
If you have a fault you cannot get to the bottom of, or any other electrical work needed, call and I will talk it through honestly.
