Extending Spur - adding double sockets
Reply with quote Thanks

Hi there im new here, looking for some guidance - hope someone can help. icon_smile.gif

I am extanding my garage and hoping to have work benches down one side, the problem is i only have one double socket in the whole of the garage - this is definitely a spur.

Now - this double socket has been \\\'tapped\\\' into to power the lights also, thorugh a fused outlet.

Whats the best way to add more sockets in the garage - i use a lot of power tools while working on cars etc, hence why i need a few extra.

Can anyone advise???
thanks.

Call in an electrician & have your whole garage wired up properly, I would suspect it is a totally unsatisfactory instalation from your description.
