Hi all.

Had a search but can't find a specific answer, so after a bit of pro advice.


I have a socket in the kitchen (aware of Building reg requirements) that has a spur off it serving another socket in an adjacent room.

I need to form a spur from this socket in the kitchen in order I can supply the extractor hood via a fan switch and fixed fused conection unit.

As I cannot wire two spurs from the kitchen socket, am I correct in thinking I can break into the ring circuit as it continues down from my socket below work top level; set a junction box in with a blank cover plate and spur off that to supply the other room, so long as the blank plate is in an accessible place e.g behind the cooker.


Hope this makes sense.

Cheers.

Why not just put the FCU on the wall next to the socket, on the ring, and run to the cooker hood from there?
