[QUOTE="Steppenwolf, post: 476382, member: 31080"] Good afternoon folks, We have what I suppose is a small consumer unit in our garage (with RCD breaker) on its own feed from the main consumer unit in the house (by which I mean it has its own switch on the board). This in turn feeds supply to a couple of sockets, garage door mechanism, lights. I want to run a new supply out to a garden room nearby, and I propose to run a length of 6 mm² SWA 3 core armoured cable to the garden room, directly into a double 13A socket (well I'll probably do into a junction box and take internal 3-core off that) with a 6A fused spur leading off to supply a single light and switch. Can I get away with that or do I need anything else? I'm assuming I don't need another fused spur before the socket for example? Kind regards Bob [/QUOTE]
