Currently have a rather large ring main for entire house.
I want to split this into two ring mains as I am having a new cu with extra spare ways.
I have located two appropriate lengths of cable running between two sets of adjacent sockets. Can I pull out one end of each cable and join them using a junction box to make the large existing ring become smaller. This would leave me to run two lots of cables from the cu to the two double sockets th at the two old cables have been pulled out from, thus creating a new ring m ain of the remainder of the now disconnected part of the old ring main?
Is it ok from a wiring regs point of view to have a junction box on a cable running between two adjacent sockets on a ring main?
