    UK Do Regs allow power socket in an enclosed bathroom vanity unit?

    That changes things. You could (should) have an FCU in that position. A socket is not necessary.

    Your dedicated circuit is a radial, so a connection to a radial is just part of the radial, it's often called a branch. The term "spur" is when a single cable connection is made to a ring final circuit. It's important terminology as the branch you are making from the radial does not need a...

    Under floor heating mat 15Amps

    I do not understand your maths. The 200watts is per square metre. So the original 18sqm mat would be 3600watts. The mats the client has bought will also be exactly the same at 3600watts. In both cases you will need a separate circuit, (16amp minimum) and you need to make sure that the...

    Do I need false ceiling to mount spotlights?

    Downlights are recessed so not suitable for a ceiling made of cement. Surface lights are the option here, but then you’ll need cables going to the light(s). Those cables would be on the surface, unless you fancy cutting chases into the cement.

    Standard junction boxes with screw terminals

    Junction boxes with screw terminals are acceptable providing they can be accessed. As with all JBs, cables need cleating, and the box should be fixed, or fitted with adequate strain relief to prevent cables being pulled out.

    Advice re voltage converter!

    As a footnote. The mains frequency here is 50HZ @ 230volts. 110V supplies are usually 60HZ, so it may not just be a job to change the voltage. Air fryers arent that expensive and I'm sure you can lay your hands on some spare currency in the Cayman Islands...
