Pensdown said:Computer equipment is known to have high earth leakage and if your 6 way power block was in an Office it would need to be fused at no more than 7amps for this reason. (BS-6396)

Why would you need to fuse it at 7 amps? I have never heard of that before and all our 4 or 6 gangs at work are 13amp!
Is that a part of BS1363?Pensdown said:You can tell whether your doubles are high integrity earthed as the switches are on the outside and not together in the middle as normal.

That's not what I meant.Pensdown said:According to MK BS1363 Part 2

Some have dual earth connections for HI (high integrity) circuits and some have a clean earth terminal which segregates the earth pin from the back box earth.
Pensdown said:Ahh, now I can see what you were getting at. I don't have a copy of BS-1363 so I can't really comment. What I do know is that to date, I've not come across a dual/clean earth socket with the rockers in the middle.
This forum is a good place to state that fact because if they are made I'm sure someone will point them out
