Two switches

[nikkirobinson]

I am spurring off the ringmain with a junction box, and then I have two appliances that I want to switch from this spur (both low current).

Do I have to wire 2 separate switched fused spurs?
Or can I wire a single un-switched fused spur connected to a double switch plate with each appliance connected to these?

Or are there any other options.

Thanks in advance!

Nik.

You can have spur from a ring final into a double socket outlet.
The cable from the ring must be the same size as the cable in the ring.

Or you could have a switch fused spur (FSU) on the ring. From the output of this FSU you can have any numner of sockets. The load on the additional sockets will be limited by the fuse in the FSU (max 13A)

Thanks for these suggestions.

The, two appliances are a projector and a screen for a home cinema system, so the power cables will be wired directly into these appliances, run through the roof and then down to some switch/spur arrangement at the back of the room.

So I don't really want sockets running off the spur, so can I do it similar to your second suggestion, but instead of a number of sockets off the spur have to switch plates?

Cheers,

Nik.

Sure, no probs.
