Windlesham is fifteen minutes from Ascot and covered on the same round as Bagshot and Lightwater. The village runs to substantial detached property on large, often heavily wooded plots, with a fair amount of period housing and later building between.
The plots are what makes the work here distinctive. Detached garages, workshops, stables, garden offices and pool buildings are common, and a great many are fed by cable that was buried decades ago to a standard that would not be accepted now. Ordinary cable in a plastic duct, no separate protection at the building, and joints underground with no record of where they are.
Mature tree cover adds to it. Long garden runs in damp, shaded ground take a beating, and exterior circuits are consistently the most common source of the intermittent tripping we are called out to in this area. A board that goes off when it rains is almost always something outside.
