Hi many of my rooms have one single socket in them. I am in the process of converting these to double socket outlets. However in some cases the twin and earth from the back box is quite short and as a result I think I am going to struggle with at least one of these reaching the termination points on the double socket.
As a result I was wondering if there was a preferred simple option to overcome this:
Crimping or soldering to extend the cable?
Converting the single socket to a FCU and running the double socket off of the FCU (allowing for more than one double socket to be added).
Your thoughts / advise would be appreciated.
Cheers.
