one or more people are injecting rubbish like this into various sites as part of a cunning plan to further restrict or to ban DIY work? They can then point DCLG to the sites in the on-going evaluation of Part P and say "look what happens if you leave people free to DIY - even the best intentioned can be led astray".

The first sentence was enough for me

"An FCU is a socket with an integral fuse used for connecting high-wattage appliances, such as cookers, extractor fans, central heating timers and heaters, to a circuit."

Connect a cooker using an FCU ?

Since when have extractor fans and central heating timers been high wattage?
