If you have to run a row of sockets all at the same height onto a ring circuit and the layout is basically linear, where should the "return leg" be physically wired in order for the wiring to all be in one of the safe zones ? If the return leg has to bypass the back boxes, is there space to sneak it past the boxes on the basis that the physical socket is slightly larger than the back box ? Or do you run it "though" the back boxes ? Or should the return leg be run on a different route, say down a corner and back along the floor ? Come to think of it, you could wire alternate sockets on the outgoing and return legs in order to balance the ring better, but I cannot imagine this being done ? Thanks, Simon.
