Hi guys, quicky here for you experts !!!
My bathroom is in the process of being re-done.
My better half has insisted that we stretch the budget, and buy a whirlpool bath.
I'm not sure how they are wired, but i presume they come with a 5m length of mains cable, terminated with a plug.
Whats the rules on sockets in bathroom. There is already mains into a cupboard in the bathroom, which used to house the old immersion boiler, and is soon to house the new combi boiler( which also has a plug)
I know there is a rule about having a mains socket/switch within a certain distanve of a water outlet...but not 100% of what it is.
I'll likely be putting a double socket in the cupboard, and i can hide the mains flex from the bath under the floor, as it'll be up anyway.
Any advice welcome guys.
