Kitchen InstallationCamberley

Full kitchen electrical rewire — 8 appliance circuits, FuseBox consumer unit replacement, LED downlights, under-cupboard lighting, and 2 external wall lights. Delivered in two phases around the building contractor's programme.

8 Dedicated Circuits

Individual fused spur for every kitchen appliance — hob, ovens, extractor, washing machine, dishwasher, fridge, and wine fridge.

Compliance Rectified

Six non-compliant joints found and re-made to BS 7671 during first-fix inspection — before the walls were plastered.

Full Lighting Fit-Out

Seven recessed downlights, under-cupboard lighting, and two external wall lights on the extension facade.

Two-Phase Delivery

First fix completed March 2026 in coordination with the building contractor. Second fix and consumer unit installed May 2026.

Kitchen Installation Camberley
Residential Project

CamberleyKitchen.Rewired.Right.

When a full kitchen renovation called for new electrics from the ground up, the homeowner needed an electrician who could work in step with the builders — running first-fix cables before the walls were plastered, returning once the kitchen was fitted, and dealing with whatever the existing wiring threw up. Arthur Blackwell delivered exactly that: a systematic two-phase rewire that brought the property up to standard and wired every appliance to its own dedicated circuit.

The kitchen renovation required a complete electrical strip-out and rebuild. Eight appliances — induction hob, top and bottom ovens, extractor hood, washing machine, dishwasher, fridge, and wine fridge — each needed a dedicated circuit. The scope also included recessed LED downlights throughout the kitchen ceiling, under-cupboard lighting, and two new wall lights on the extension facade.

Working in sequence with the building contractor, Nexgen completed first-fix cabling in March 2026 before the walls were plastered — labelling every appliance position so builders preserved the correct knockout positions. Six non-compliant joints were identified and re-made to BS 7671 before the walls were closed. Second-fix and consumer unit installation followed in May.

01

8 Appliance Circuits

Individual fused spur isolation for every kitchen appliance — each circuit run back to a labelled breaker in the new consumer unit.

02

FuseBox Consumer Unit

Full consumer unit replacement providing protected circuits for the complete property, with all existing ring mains retained and tested.

03

LED Lighting Installation

Seven recessed downlights through the ceiling void, a dedicated under-cupboard lighting circuit, and two exterior wall lights on the extension.

04

Compliance Rectification

Six non-compliant joints found during first-fix and re-made to BS 7671 before plastering — defects that would otherwise have been buried inside the finished walls.

Scope of Work

Precision Engineering, Comprehensive Delivery.

Every project demands a tailored approach. Our scope encompasses the full spectrum of electrical infrastructure — from initial assessment through final commissioning — ensuring seamless integration and long-term reliability.

Appliance Circuit Installation

Eight dedicated fused spurs for induction hob, top and bottom ovens, extractor hood, washing machine, dishwasher, fridge, and wine fridge — each individually protected and labelled.

Consumer Unit Replacement

FuseBox consumer unit installed and commissioned, replacing the existing unit — dedicated circuits for all kitchen appliances, property ring mains retained and tested.

Recessed LED Downlights

Seven recessed downlights wired through the kitchen ceiling void on a dedicated lighting circuit — positioned and roughed-in during first fix before the ceiling was boarded.

Under-Cupboard Lighting

Dedicated circuit for under-cupboard LED lighting — independently switched from the ceiling downlights for flexible kitchen task lighting.

External Wall Lights

Two new wall lights wired to the extension facade — cabling roughed-in during first fix and terminated on the second fix visit.

Compliance Rectification

Six non-compliant cable joints identified during first-fix inspection and re-made to BS 7671 standard before plastering — defects that would have been concealed inside the finished walls.

Engineering Excellence

Meeting Every Challenge Head On.

Complex electrical projects rarely follow a straight line. Our engineers thrive in high-constraint environments — designing solutions that protect operations, meet deadlines, and stand the test of time.

The Challenge

The project involved coordinating electrical work across two distinct phases — first fix before plastering, second fix after the kitchen was fitted — while working around the building contractor's programme. During the first-fix inspection, six non-compliant cable joints were discovered in the existing installation. Rectifying these before the walls were closed added scope mid-project and required a judgement call on how to handle cabling that did not meet current BS 7671 standards.

Our Solution

Arthur Blackwell completed the first-fix cabling in a single visit, labelling every appliance knockout position on the walls so the building contractor could work around them without disturbing the cable routes. The non-compliant joints were re-made on the same visit — keeping the programme intact. Second-fix followed once the kitchen was installed: consumer unit replacement, all appliance spur connections, lighting circuits energised, and all circuits tested and signed off.
