connecting a socket spur

[habiba]

thanks for all the help so far

i think i will go with steve and ban-all-sheds suggestion of using the 10mm to install a sub main cu. and then taking a seperate shower and socket cable from there

what amp circuit will i need to use at the main cu? at the sub main there will be one shower cable, 2 socket and one light cable

We cant design such a circuit without knowing the ins and outs of the design. Also, do you know how to wire up a consumer unit?

Is there really no way of getting a fused spur from the socket circuit?

yes i know how to wire up a unit - was there any specific questions you had in mind?

it will be a big job cutting through concrete, which i am trying to avoid

You need to know EXACTLY how that 10mm cable is installed. Methods of installation can reduce a cable's current carrying capacity by up to 50%
You need to ascertain how much current it can handle before you decide what rating of MCB you need.

Is the shower currently RCD protected?

PS. Are you absolutely sure that it is 10mm^2? How are you aware of this?
