hello there.
can anyone please advise, i have a double plug socket in my room but i want to move it over to the opposite side of the room which involves extending the cable, i dont want to use connecters as i think this is not acceptable with regulations.. is the alternatative a junction box?? is so, what amp junction box will i need?
many thanks

simple answer to straight ? is 30A round 3 term. JB.
If socket on ring this will mean 3 sets of three wires in box, make sure earths are sheathed with Gn/Yel sleeving & no wires visible outside JB, ie over sheath must go into box!
