We've recently moved house (well, it was in April and we're still decorating so I still like to think of it as recently).
I'm doing some like for like replacements in the kitchen (old for new sockets) and I'm wondering if this set up meets the regulations. It was like this when I got here, promise.
Here's a diagram to describe it a little easier. The issue is from a double socket on a ring main. There is a spur from it that goes to a SFCU, which powers the boiler. This seems fine but then from the SFCU there is a single socket. From the single socket we then leave the kitchen and go through to the conservatory where there are two further SFCU's that go on to power double sockets.
Is this all above board? If it is, that's great and I was wondering what the regs were for powering the socket off the Boiler FCU? For example, can it come from the Line IN and therefore turning off the boiler SFCU will not turn off the power to the socket next to it and the conservatory. Or does it need to come off the Load?
Thanks for any help.
