However we have recently moved to an...

    Old single socket

    @SUNRAY instead of having the sfcu could I run 2 cables from a standard fcu one to my light and the other into the loft as a socket? In my drawing above the sfcu supply’s an extension cord into the loft which I could potentially do without. Cheers

    Old single socket

    The old boiler had a storage tank, don’t think there was an immersion, there are 2 cables terminated together in a blank box which I think was originally for the pumps on the old boiler system.

    Old single socket

    Hi, the old socket already has 2 sets of cables coming out of it, I need to keep this single socket so I can supply mains to the loft. I need the double and some lights so assumed I would need a fuse spur for the light?
