Hi guys I need to put up a new electrical socket in the living room, room is being replastered, ceiling boards are off, so now is a good time to add the socket..ive located the wires for the downstairs ring...so is it just a matter of cutting the ring main and adding in a 3 way junction box, bring the cable down the wall to a 25mm pattress box? ...seems like the right way..also does it matter which side of the ring main wire you cut?..because you have two 2.5mm cables coming out of each existing socket that come from the consumer unit and return to it..ta
