advice required!

I intend to fit a sauna which will cover an existing twin socket (with spur off). Am I ok to replace this socket with a junction box (keeping the spur off) and extend the ring main to a new socket with a spur off to the 6kw sauna heater?

NO, NO, NO

Install a 6mm 32A Radial from the CU for your sauna heater
