I'm going to install a shaver socket and I'm wondering if it's OK to connect it direct to a lighting circuit.
The previous one I installed has an FCU from the ring main but it would be much easier to use the (quite nearby) lighting circuit for this new one. The lighting circuit does have an earth wire and is standard 'looped in' so there's unswitched live and neutral easily available.
More than OK, I'd say it was usual.
Yup, its commonly done. (especially on combined lighting / shaver socket fittings!)

OK, thanks all, that's a 'yes' then!
Yes - it's standard practise.
Well with a bit of luck harry will be along with a "no" just to confirm it is a "yes".
