[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 467245, member: 1408"] When you say loft conversion , is it just one bedroom ? I'm wondering why a ring main is considered necessary . Agree with opinions on smoke detectors , always connected to lighting circuit . Also the loft light feed could be picked up from the bedroom lights below or even from a 3A spur of your new plugs . It could actually be done without going back to the board ....but every electrician has his own interpretation . The amount of power consumed by a bedroom is very small. [/QUOTE]
