Is this allowed (spur)

[scatmanjohn]

I am on with doing my kitchen up at the moment and was wondering if this is allowed:

I want to run a spur from a nearby socket (which is not on a spur itself).
to a fused spur.

Can i then run a spur off the new fused spur to a new double socket.

Thanks for any help

Yep nothing wrong with that as long as at least 2.5mm square - 13 amp protection

I like to challenge what people consider acceptable & not acceptable - For short runs, you could use 1.0 t&e. It is rated in excess of 13A, provided it is installed to Method 1, and there are no other factors involved.

but personally i do find it better if everyone kept to the same sized cable. saves poking about looking for clipping methods and factors to justfy it

1. Do not hijack posts

2.Brushed steel spur

3. No. You can't go hiding stuff under floors, as this will not be accesible for testing and inspection purposes, and will be a right royal PITA if the fuse goes, and no one knows the FCU even exists.[/url]
