Is it acceptable to run this wire into a double plug socket.

Make your mind up, a plug or a socket? They are two different things.

jgh



What's your problem? Calling it a double plug socket makes perfect sense. Is
far better than those that call sockets plugs and plugs "plug tops"!

Well, it's hardly a definitive description, is it?

I'm thinking of putting a socket in my loft.

What kind of socket?

A plug socket.

Errrrrrrr?


In short, it adds nothing to the description.


I'm thinking of putting a new plug socket behind the telly.

Is that a phono plug socket, HDMI socket, phone plug socket, VGA plug
socket, RJ45 plug socket, F-type plug socket, Belling-Lee plug socket,
13A plug socket, 5A (lighting) plug socket or some other kind of plug
socket?


Those that use the term seem to think it is the most logical term in the
world but I just can't see the logic behind it.


Personally I'd say 13A socket, 13A dual socket, 13A single socket or
whatever.
