Hello, I hope someone can help.
I am partitioning part of my downstairs kitchen into a bathroom.
The bathroom will consist of a shower and basin.
At present I have 2 electrical sockets in this room, one at chest height and the other at above head height.
I was hoping to blank one of these off with a blanking plate and use the other one as an FCU to then run in external conduit to lighting and an extractor fan.
The fcu will be above the shower, provided I block access to this, is the rest legal?
If the fcu is blocked off and I run cable from the back box to an external FCU would that help and how can I block these off safely so that they are legal in the shower zone etc?
