Hi
Wondered if someone could help.......?
First problem I have, is an old switch which was used to turn on the hot water cylinder on the old heating system, which has now gone. I want to remove this switch and tile over the whole, but the problem being its still live.
It has 2 wires in and 2 out how can I check if this is on its own feed from CU and how would I terminate the power supply to the switch?
Second problem I have, is I want to extend the ring main into 2 small utility rooms adding a double socket in each room.
The point at which I can pick up the ring is at an existing double socket (which I no longer require if it makes life easier), drill into the first utility room from behind this socket and feed the cable through.
Still with me? Ok
So because the existing cable on the ring is not long enough to go through the wall, what options do I have? Can I spur off into a junction box, on the other side of the wall and then send 2 cables to 2 different new double sockets? Or do I need to extend the ring main cables(how?).
I'm a bit lost now anyone help please.
I also have a third problem but I think it might be answered with problem 2 I'll wait and see.
