[QUOTE="Jamesp82, post: 467206, member: 30411"] Hi, having a loft conversion built at the moment and the onsite electrician has suggested that I might need a new consumer based on there not being enough circuit breakers. This is pretty annoying as we had a new one put in and certified 2 years ago. There are currently 6 slots in the unit, 4 are in use. The loft requires a mains ring, lighting ring and smoke alarms - so I’m one short. I’ve noticed that we have one downstairs light on it’s on ring/circuit breaker. Can this be moved onto the house lighting ring to free up a slot? Thanks for your help! [/QUOTE]
