Can someone clarify and advise please? I would like to know if I can run 2 spurs, each supplying 2 SINGLE sockets from a double socket (currently used for kettle and toaster) with no other spurs? The spurs will supply power to 1. Washing machine 2. Extractor hood, therefore not in constant use. Thanks

As I understand the regulations you can only put ONE spur from ONE socket on the mains, but it can be a double outlet. If you need two..then find another socket unless it is a fused spur then it can be run like a radial
