Sanity check

[cyberjunction]

Hi Guys
I was certified back in Feb with Elecsa but not done much electrical work since due to family comitments and am really new to the industry after redundency so please forgive my need for reassurance as am a little rusty.

Basically, I have a detached garage with 2.5 twin and earth being spurred from a double socket in the house through metal conduit giving one socket in the garage. A spur from this garage socket has then been taken to feed the lights.

Basically I want to change the socket in the garage to a 13 amp FCU so I can add about 8 double sockets in the garage, I then want to add a 5 amp SFCU for the lights, can anyone see any problems with this?

Its pretty basic but as I said, its a learning curve and I prefer to learn slowly on my own house as I dont have the pleasure of working with anyone else,

I dont want to go direct in to the C/U as its full and my proposal seems to be a quick and acceptable way?

Thanks for any replies.

Are there any services ( water, gas) in the garage or anything that would require bonding?

Tel, you forgot the beer coolers, chiller, lighting system,,,,,, and all the other things you find in a garage. Other than a car, that can rot on the drive.

Might have to rethink my options, kids probably wont go in there in the winter so it could be "dads rooms". you're right pool table, jukeboxes, pole dancing....sold

Better go 3 phrase or a generator the size of of an Eddie Stobbard by the time I finish....
