Hi,
I know this will be a really boring straight forward question to most, so sorry in advance.
I havent been able to find the answer for some of these questions on here, so apologies if I have missed anything.
I recently had a new kitchen installed and a new fuse box was fitted in the process.
Whilst this was being done, I wanted a new double socket in a large walk in storage cupboard, and the electricians fitted one on its own fuse switch. (Shown in pics supplied - fuse switch number 3)
I then decided I wanted a second double socket in the hall by this cupboard, so I ran a spur of this first double socket.
Now, I have decided I would like another double socket (or maybe a couple more of them) elsewhere.
So my questions are:
1) On this style of circuit, how many double sockets can there be?
2) How many spurs can be taken off one double socket (in this case, the first double socket fitted, which was in the cupboard... remembering that a second is already connected to it)?
3) What would be the best way of adding other sockets (spurs, junction boxes in loft, etc)?
4) Would a socket for the garden/s need to be ran off their own switched fuse in the Junction box or can they safely be connected to an existing circuit?
