Unswitched FCU feeding 3 FCU's
Anonymous user 23/02/2024 - 3.23 PM
Hi I need to get power into my bathrooms for shaver sockets. Can I fit an unswitched FCU from the ring main that will feed 3 FCU's to feed power to the shaver sockets.I live in a bungalow and it has had a loft conversion so there is a ring main in the loft. Thanks Tony

Yep not a problem as long as spur is in a permitted zone if located in the bathroom. Either split the ring and fit the spur as part of the ring, or spur the fcu off the ring and fuse down as required 3A should be ample. Do this for each bathroom if easier or use the first fcu to feed three more with the final three fcu fused down.

It's notifiable work as its a special location so you'll need an electrician.
