HI all,
I am aware of the rules to have one spur per socket on a ring as well as not talking more than one spur from the same point on a ring however I have discovered this wiring arrangement (crude drawing attached ) in my home and I am unsure of it is safe/compliant.

Essentially there is a junction box as the break point in the ring and two spurs are taken from this point , one spur being a standard double socket but the other being a 13amp FCU. All cables are standard 2.5mm. Can anyone explain if this is ok now due to one leg being a FCU.

No such rules in England. Don't know about Ireland.

Yes, sound and looks fine.
