Wall socket

[Highlandbilly]

Is it ok to spike a socket across an inner wall
Have wired in a few sockets and one is above a cross beam in an inner wall that i wanted to drop down but hole in beam only enough for one twin and earth
Cant get access to open or drill hole as its behind splash-back
But across from where i want socket in other side of wall in other room is socket (single wired end of ring?)
So can spike from it but would mean very short twin and earth (6ins maybe) would this shortness cause a problem

Could have been worse. Could have assaulted people up the --- with his jawbone ?

i'll leave that to philip schofield.

He could buy your car at the same time.

 

[telectrix]

yeah. for 50% of it's value. they offered me £850 for a Shogun. it sold on ebay for £1500

they offered me £850 for a Shotgun.

That sounds about right for your part of the world ?

When we saw you were not getting the answer you wanted we knew you would do it your way anyway. I hope you don't have a fire. If the insurance finds out I doubt if they will pay out.

Happy New Year and a pleasant funeral. No flowers please, donations to the the "Out of Work Electricians Fund"

you could have a go at replacing your gas boiler next.

It'll probably be a cremation......?

What could possibly go wrong there? It's only pipes!

 

[telectrix]

yep only 3 pipes. Gas, water in, water out. sssimplesss. CO poisoning or drowning.

 

[Moley]

What? No chance of a big bang? That's boring.

Doesn't surprise me that you've done it to be honest. I personally would have listened more and given more info, or if it was beyond your knowledge I would have said get an electrician in.

Scary.

The thing is, a spur off a spur will work fine until someone decides to plug in a few high powered appliances.

We don’t even know if it is a ring or radial yet, so could be everything is tickety boo.

I've yet to see a ring with a 'single wired end of ring'. ?
