    Safest way to add a fused spur?

    I have 3 cables going to a double socket (original socket in a new build, I haven't changed it). To spur off this and add an FCU I would've thought I would've had to obviously add a 4th. There are already 3 cores under each screw, feels like 4 might be 'cramming' which worries me. What's the...

    Additional fused spur

    As a rank amateur at electrics I had hoped to have an electrician complete the mains connection to my low voltage garden lighting. Owing to the lockdown this isn’t possible so I’m going to have a go. Question - I already have a fused spur, fed from a double socket, to feed an outdoor garden...

    Fused Spur For LED TV

    Hi, Hoping to get a 2nd opinion please. We are fitting out a new room and will be wall mounting the TV. We want all connections to be hidden behind the TV. The problem is that a standard mains socket and plug is too deep behind the TV so TV sticks out too far. Currently, in another room...

These lamps will be controlled with smart bulbs with a little remote control or/and an app on the phone, no need of wall switch.

    Combo plug socket + fused spur box sought

    I recently came across some legacy lights which were taken off an un-fused spur which is part of a dual plug socket box. I have been unable to find a combination dual box that has one plug socket + one fused spur connection which seems the easiest way of fixing this non-compliance. I would be...

    Swap fused spur for Single Socket

    Hi I'd like to swap a 13a fused spur for a single 13a socket as we're never going to put a fireplace in and just want to have less wire clutter. I've swapped sockets over before without an issue but what's confused me here is that there are 2 sets of wires going into the socket (see picture)...

To explain what i am trying to achieve, i need to cut the plug off a flex that connects to a small transformer for an POE injector. As...

    Adding fused spur for bathroom extactor

    Hi - I'm planning to fit an extractor with timer to a bathroom, switching on with the lights and had bought a fan isolator switch, but reading the Manrose instructions they insist on double pole fused spur with 3A fuse.
