Default Bathroom shaver socket

Rather than install a standard large shaver socket in the tiled wall
my idea is to put a single switched outlet inside a cupboard in zone 3
of the bathroom. I would connect my contactless shaver charger to
this.


Zone three no longer exists - it was removed with the introduction of
the 17th edition. Sockets are permitted in bathrooms now so long as they
are 3m from the end of zone 2 (so only large bathrooms need apply!)

As far as I can see this does not fall foul of the regs - am I
correct?


depends on how far away the cupboard is, and whether you need a tool to
open in.
