I just bought a house that has what I think is some suspect wiring in the attached garage.
I would like to sort it out so am after some advice on the best and safest option.
Power usage out there will be low. A double 13A socket for a freezer and lighting.
The existing wiring is taken off of a spur from the kitchen (I assume from the kitchen ring not another spur, but I haven't confirmed this yet.)
Someone has drilled through the wall behind a socket in the kitchen and run a cable from this to a double switched 13A socket in the garage on the other side of the wall. All of the garage wiring - another socket and the lights are "daisy chained" from this spur using trailing flex plugged into the socket.
I want to put a proper switched light in there and move the 13A socket to a more convenient location. What's the correct way of doing this without creating too much work?
