[QUOTE="Evans Electric, post: 473412, member: 1408"] You know it contravenes the UK Regs ...its not a good idea but Brusparks scenario is why the Regs say what they do . I've seen it and worse in rented properties but its not good. I'm not condoning this action ....just saying that extension lead needs to be 1.5mm or bigger ...and MUST be unrolled completely , specially with that load on it . And while it should not be in the bathroom at all .....if it were in there there MUST be an RCD protecting it ...if there is'nt then don't do it . In fact don't do it period . [/QUOTE]
