UK Legal Details - Sockets - Where is the requirement for separate socket earths to be linked?

[wilmer000]

do you mean that there's no manufacturers link between the 2 earth terminals? have you metered across them?

It's two entirely separate terminations, one hole on the back for each earth wire.

Trainee question, get to the right aisle.. pg 86 osg might explain something

DIY, sorry. wanted to ask the pros if it was allowed, and if so, how to deal with the installation

Who manufactured it?

Looks like a Poundland special.

Well just get the bits do a few flips with wire and join her up.
What ya asking now , what you want to deal with

In normal circumstances they are joined together, and if equipment with leakage current I.e computersx3+ is plugged in , then wire in and out of the terminals

No, I think you have misunderstood.

Can you post a photo of the rear of your socket.

Yes of course.
