[QUOTE="Ardet R, post: 470087, member: 30040"] You are then into the realm of compliance with the wiring regulations, whereby sockets and cables buried in walls (in safe zones) <50mm deep require 30mA RCD protection. That is more complex to ascertain from a distance and would have to be determined by an electrician on site. Electrically it is probable that the modification you wish to do is possible, subject to some inspection and testing, from a practical point of view installing multiple isolators seems pointless and installing sockets requires a further level of compliance with BS7671.
