I have a twin power socket that will soon be covered by a bookcase. I do not want to lose access to the sockets as they are the only ones in the room. I was thinking about plugging two 4-way extension leads (with switchable sockets) into each socket on the wall before putting the bookcase in place. My problem is that the bookcase will now be too far away from the wall.
What are my options here?
Could I replace the twin sockets with a twin fused connection unit? Does a twin fused connection unit even exist? Would it be safe to hard wire an extension lead into a fused connection unit?
As you can probably tell I am a complete novice. I can competently re-wire a plug (woo-hoo!) but I have never tackled anything like this before. I would prefer not to have to move the sockets to another wall. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.
