Re: Bathroom Illuminated Mirror From Fused Spur

Re: Drilling holes through brick walls

Cheers

Changing fused spur to single socket

I’ve recently changed a 13amp fused spur to a single socket. It’s on the 32amp circuit breaker in the fuse box. There is only one set of cables in the back of the socket (one each of L,N,E).
