I cannot find the answer to this in my "guide to eletrical regs" book. i wonder if someone here can advise.
I want to add some sockets to the kitchen of our new house. I want to do this in the next day or so (before we fully move in). I am not part P certified so I am not allowed to install a new circuit connected in to the ring main, nor even, I think, to wire up a spur from an existing socket.
Am I allowed to add sockets in the kitchen and wire them up to a 13A plug which I then plug in an existing mains socket? Can I legally do this without building control notification/approval?
This would be a temporary measure: My plan is to have a pro check them and wire them in to the ring main in a few months time (upgrading the CU and doing other stuff at the same time).
Of course, there are unofficial ways to do this, but I wondered if my proposed way is legally acceptable.
