AI Overview
This electrical installation involved adding an extra double socket inside a cupboard to power broadband equipment discreetly. A new dedicated circuit protected by a 16amp RCBO was installed, using surface-mounted wiring to avoid wall chasing. The result is a safe, compliant, and tidy solution that keeps networking equipment out of sight while minimising disruption.
Extra Double Socket Installed for Broadband Equipment
We recently completed a practical electrical installation for a client who required an additional double socket inside a cupboard to power their broadband connection equipment neatly and out of the way.
To ensure safety and reliability, a new dedicated circuit was installed and protected by a 16amp RCBO. The circuit was wired using 2.5mm cable, supported in mini trunking, and finished into a surface-mounted double back box.
The client specifically requested that no walls be chased due to the mess and disruption this can cause. A surface-mounted conduit and trunking solution was therefore used, which worked perfectly within the cupboard space while still providing a clean and professional finish.
This type of installation is ideal for broadband and networking equipment where practicality, compliance, and minimal disruption are key requirements.
