If you really want that, fit a socket in the airing cupboard so the

I wouldn't have thought plugging an immersion heater in to a 13A socket
was a good idea? Certainly not as a 'medium' term solution...

Not into a ring, no. But we're talking a radial circuit here. And 13 amp
plugs are rated at 3 kW. However, you could always use a 15 or 16 amp type.


Thanks all for your advice
