[QUOTE="SLIPSHOD & SLAPDASH, post: 391429, member: 16"] Trying to future-proof often is a waste of time. Its ok to fit a socket or spur in the loft thats connected to the existing lighting circuit as long as its well labelled that its 3 or 5A max as connected to lighting circuits. Some methods of wiring the lights means there is no permanent live feed in the loft though. If this is the case cant you get the builders to put either a sub main for your future conversion, socket or lighting cable in. They only have to push it up into the loft for you without going up and tell you where the bottom end is left [/QUOTE]
