Hi guys,
I've just moved into a brand new new build house, and in my utility room where the CH boiler is located, a switched FCU (with a 3 amp fuse installed) is installed in the wall which controls the power to the boiler.
So I want to put my microwave in this utitity room, but no other plug sockets or FCUs are in the room, so I want to either:
Connect both the microwave and boiler to the FCU (but this wont work as the boiler needs a 3A fuse rather than 13A the microwave will need, and I think its bad to run two appliances off one FCU?)
Change the single FCU to a double FCU (but these don't seem to exist?)
Install a new single socket being powered by the FCU. So a spur off the FCU?
So whats the best way to do this?
Thanks guys
