Are you sure? I would have said 'no' on the grounds that it is putting a
high point load on the ring; no more than one double socket or one FCU
should be taken from each point on the ring. Of course, if there're only 12"
between 2 points each feeding a spur the 'rule' has been complied with but
the principle ignored.
