I have a new build house and the builders, sparks, plumbers and kitchen fitter have left the place untidy and one of the jobs I want to do is to swap the fused spur from the mains for a single 13 amp socket and then plug the cooker hood back in and close it up again
The spur hidden behind the extractor hood, only powers the cooker hood and its integral lights. The washer dishwasher, hob, cooker and tumble dryer have their own isolators
There are 2 brown, 2 blue and 2 earth wires left when I have taken away the cooker hood lead and I connected each pair to their respective points on the 13 amp socket when I turned the power back on it tripped in the distribution box, upon further inspection the fused spur (Deta UK)
had a Blue Neutral, Brown (L )Supply a second Brown (L) Load and 2 Earths in line, a second (N) Supply was situated at the bottom of the socket under the first Blue (N) Load.
Hopefully I've attached a photo of the fused spur, can someone please tell me where I've gone wrong and do I need a different type of 13amp socket or not.
Thanks in anticipation.
Papaone.
