Hi I am using a fused spur unit fused 13A fed from a ring main in a lean too shed for additional sockets.
Is there a problem fitting on the end another spur box fused 2A to feed a light controlled by a 1 way switch the load of equipment only comes to 5A, supplied off the 13A spur?
I have installed two lighting points in a garage through a FCU connected to a ring final circuit. When testing the installation would I treat the FCU as a distribution board and add my R1 + R2 from the furthest light to the FCU? Or would I need to include the R1 + R2 of the ring circuit too?

I am looking to change my job, at the moment all the job ads require electricians to have knowledge of Hvac ahu fcu and Bms. Can anybody give me advice as to what course I should take to gain this qualification. I am a 17th edition electrician with C and G 1 and 2. There seems to be no end of...
Referring back to an old post ...... In my house the boiler FCU is beside the combi boiler in the bathroom, both about 0.5m outside zone 2. It's been there for the 16 years i've lived there. I've recently rewired the whole house, but left the FCU in the same position because of:
