Electrical connections

Posted by Christopher Vaughan, on
Hi. I've just built a bar outside which has a double 13a weatherproof socket powering a single fridge and sometimes the lawnmower. Other than that just some LED's. Its wired with 2.5mm t&e conduit it through the kitchen wall next to the washing machine socket. Should I wire the 2.5mm t&e into a fused 13a spur and then plug into a double socket using 13amp plug? If so what wire do I use coming out of the FCU to the double socket. Or should I have drilled through the back of the socket, through the wall, and wired the 2.5mm t&e directly to the back of the socket? Thanks

What would you like to do now?
