I have fitted a spur to a double socket, however it was a tad tricky
since the conductors were not long enough. Is it 'OK' to hide screw
block connectors in the socket box ? The Muppet who originally fitted
the surface mount dual socket over the original single socket recess
did not manage to connect up the earth cable.. so I can't have made it
any worse !

If you have a crimping tool then just crimp some wire on the make them
longer.
Its easier than screw terminals but they are OK for what you are doing if
you use ones that are big enough.
