hi folks,firstly reading these forums and the answers the many proffesionals give is excellent
my question is,in my house we had electric panel heaters fitted which in one of the bedrooms we never use, it is fed from a fused switch outlet on the wall and this in turn is connected to the cu with 2.5mm twin and earth and protected by a 16amp mcb...well i think its 16 amp the info on the mcd is hager mt116 b16,this only protects the one heater as the other 5 heaters in the house all have there own mcb
what i was wanting to do was replace the fused switch on the wall with a double socket,then take a spur off of this and connect another double socket about 10 feet away,will i be ok to do this with the current 16amp mcb,all i want the sockets for is a pc and monitor in one room and an xbox and tv in another so nothing too power hungry..and thoughts would be great
