2 double sockets from one spur??

[mickfitz]

Hello

I want to run a spur to a double socket. Then from that socket run another double socket off in parallel.

I've heard/read it's not correct to run 2 spurs from one socket. But I've read nothing to say running another parallel socket from a spur is incorrect.

I hope i've made myself clear ... any advise will be appreciated

TIA ... Mick

defintely not permitted

unless you fuse the spur at 13A using an FCU between the original socket and the two new ones.

that will do for me ... many thanks for the reply

Better still, extend the ring from the socket that was going to supply the first spur, assuming it was connected directly to the ring.
