I am in the UK.

So is it legal or not to install Euro Schuko sockets in a UK house - if
the answer is 'yes it's legal' - must they be wired according to UK (ring
main) standards (in which case AFAIUI - possibly dangerous) or only on a
radial circuit?

Someone on the IEE (sorry IET) forums claimed that their BCO said he would
accept a Part P job done partly to German VDE100, specifically a schuko in
the bathroom, which is apprently allowed under German regs, with caveats
(30mA or lower RCD, 16A MCB, correct zone, fed from same CU as lights etc).

Don't think anyone's claimed to have put it to the test yet.
