Default Spur off a spur?

Is it permissable/advisable to connect an electric towel bar using a
fused spur, connected to a spur? That's what our electrician intends to
do, and it doesn't sound right to me (I'm hoping he's right, and I'm
wrong.)


For a general purpose socket spur, then yes but only if both sockets are
protected by the fused spur.

With a specific known load - like a towel rail fed from a flex outlet,
then it might also be acceptable from an unfused spur if you can show
that there is not possibility of overload.
