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

    I have come across a double socket where the earth terminations aren't linked together - Is this illegal (and what regulation do i look at?) or is it allowed, and I just put the loop-earth in one termination and join the unearthed socket with a length of Earth conductor?
