Place I moved into had a bathroom utility cupboard, originally with sockets at the back of a shelf. Did my reading here and thought I had a problem with sockets in bathroom but electrician told me all I needed to do was wire appliances directly into 13A FCUs.
The washer and dryer are each going to be wired into their own 13A FCU and which is part of a 20A RCD protected Radial circuit.
I read the topics on here about extending washing machine flex. I'd like to lengthen the cable a little as currently the FCUs are behind the appliances, meaning I'd have to remove the appliances to change a fuse or even isolate them, doesn't seem right.
With the bathroom cupboard location, can I extend the appliance cable?
I was wondering if I could use a hylec waterproof inline plug/socket so the machines are easy to remove for repairs etc?
