Hi Guys,
Another regulation question....
I will be installing 6 double power sockets behind what will be a TV/AV 'centre' in the room. They will be mounted on a board with several other points for networking, speaker distribution, aerials etc. These sockets will be covered by a board with a cable outlet at the bottom to hide them from view (this will have vents installed for any DC adapters that are plugged in).
Due to the amount of sockets I would like to mount them from the floor upwards, rather than from 450mm.
I have heard that if you install a socket below 450mm or above 1200mm you can install a switch/fused switch for that socket. If I am correct, if I did this, I would require 6 switches to switch off all the sockets as each would be classed as a spur.
If the above correct, can anyone think of another way of doing this as I do not want a load of sockets halfway up my wall!
Thanks for your continued help!
Adam.
