    Nibbly fish shop - special location??

The tanks require power and come with a short length of flex (approx 600mm) and plug top. In my opinion these tanks would be classed as a bath tub as a...

    Outdoor socket notifiable

    Sorry to go over old ground but just need clarification. I have extended the ring main in a kitchen and customer now wants an outdoor socket. Is this now notifiable? I believe not as ammended rules state notifiable for new DB, new circuit, work in special location? Thanks.
