Hi, hope you can help. I have read much conflicting text about when you may or may not add a fused spur to power an appliance.
I have read here that I can take more than one fused spur any one socket on the ring. Is that correct?
What if that socket outlet is already a spur itself (just one cable feeding it). Can I add aa FUSED spur to such a 'spured socket'?
Finally, I have read someone being advised to see the BS7671 definition of "competent". I'm not being lazy, I have searched for this on the Web but cannot find an answer. Could you explain whether a person who has done many such spurs in the past is classed as "Competent" to perform these "Minor Works"? The new regulations seem such muddy waters.
Many thanks in advance.
