As for the mess, another bit of it is the shower, the water pipe is earthed by a nice big 2.5mm Green/Yellow cable.
Bared for about 8" & twisted round the pipe I can't wait to get at that lot.

That page does help a bit OB, it says that it is a "reccomendation" that you only have 1 spur per outlet.

Perhaps instead I should just take the ring through to the fused boxes & then out again.

Cheers.

I don't fancy having a fused box on my bedside ta, it will be hidden under the draws where it can't be seen.
Why? Something like this is most tidy and neat...

I don't know about visibility, but if the fuse were to blow I would not want to have to move a wardrobe to fix it.
