Hi all,
Firstly, please forgive me if this post is not very clear as it is my first time! The scenario: I am planning to add a spur to my kitchen circuit so I can have access to power outdoors. I have identified all the sockets that are on the circuit I want to add my outdoor spur. I have checked the sockets at the end of the circuit to determine whether the circuit was a radial or ring. My problem is that I found two sockets with only one set of wires, all the others had 2 sets. I thought this would be classed as a radial circuit but then discovered that the MCB on the consumer unit (rated 20 amps) had two wires connected to it. Does this sound like a radial circuit to you or should I buy a continuity tester to be 100% sure (if so any recommendations?) Many thanks, Paul |
