My loft lights are on the upstairs lighting ring and the double socket is on the upstairs sockets ring. Although the lights appear to be in the ring itself, the socket is a spur with only one 2.5mm/30A cable going into it.
I need to add at least one more double socket, possibly two. I understand that to conform with the regs a new spur from the existing spur must be fused at 13A.
So I need to come off the existing socket to one of those little fused face plates like I have in my kitchen and then connect that to my new socket?
And what if I need to draw more than 13A? Can I add a second double socket?
