Ring circuit

[vfrdave]

I understand a standard ring circuit wiring.

 

However if one double socket on that ring was at a high level and 'user' (substitute for FIL) wanted it switched by a light switch, how is this done?

 

20A switch placed into the ring with switched live out to said socket?

 

Perhaps one @Onoff@ProDave can answer quickly?

Yes but I would prefer a 45A DP switch  or a switched FCU

Switched fcu with what size fuse?

13A unless there is a good reason for lower.

Thanks for the prompt reply.

 

Does such a thing as a 2 gang fcu exist, couldn't find one on a quick Google.

It’s standard practice to have a switched spur control an appliance, you could put 2 side by side or build something with grid switches
