Shaver Socket from a Ring Final

I think they'll be a lot of examples of it - but I cannot see any real risk with the set-up.

Does not mean I'm going to do it though - I am going to fuse it down. To ambiguous an issue not to.

Good call, the MK sockets have internal protection but it's to protect the transformer from overload, it doesn't help if the transformer fails.

If a fault develops on the transformer primary and it's connected direct to the ring then there's enough power to set it alight without tripping the breaker. MK have mitigated the hazard by specifying max 10A protection.

The thing is if you fit a FCU you can then use 1mm to the shaver socket so much less faff.

Yep. It’s got to be the way to go.
