i need to add a few sockets to my loft ring and have just discovered it's actually a one socket radial - direct from CU (2.5 mm cable to a 15A fuse)
need to use a 3Kw heater in this room (no central heating) as well as usual tv/hi fi/desk lamps . If I add 3 new sockets (using 2.5mm cable) will a 20A fuse be sufficent?
or is it better to turn into ring (if so do I need to give notification under part P - as i suppose it's technically a new ring and not just an addition to an existing ring)
