I have a house which is 2.5 years old. The garage is wired up with a cable coming in from the house and then into a switched fused outlet. This outlet powers a single light fitting and in the outlet a spur is fed off to power a double socket.
I want to expand this to have lights at the front, middle and back of the garage and to add an extra double socket. I also want an outside security light which could connect to one of the sockets via flex cable and plug, or I could connect via a fused spur outlet.
1. Is this possibe with the current setup?
2. Is this outside of Part P? i.e. can I do this myself without the need for inspection?
3. I was thinking of making this a proper project and installing a consumer unit with 3x circuit breakers for the sockets, lighting and the fused spur for the security light rather than plug and socket
4. I presume the garage feed is fed off the house ring main, which has it's own RCD trip so therefore the CU does not need an RCD.
