Re: Correct Methods for Wiring a Bathroom Mirror and Light

Thanks mate, after all that. I'm now going to run a line from my bathroom ceiling light to the mirror. I may add a FCU (1 amp) to enable isolation of the mirror.

Re: Correct Methods for Wiring a Bathroom Mirror and Light

The double socket is fed through a 32 amp ring main. I plan to take a switched spur from this socket (15A Fuse) and then run 2.5mm from the switched spur to the Mirrored Light. The Mirrored light is drawing 12A.

Is this a viable method?

I will also look at the regulatory requirements for a bathroom.
