    Maximum load for shaver socket in bathroom?

    Hi, what's the maximum load I can run from a shaver socket in a bathroom? Can I run speakers in the bathroom from this point? If that load is maximum, can I put extension cable into the bathroom and how long does it need to be away from the shower?

    shaver socket and wall light in bathroom.

    Hi, I'll shortly be installing a 12v shaver socket and wall light in my bathroom. Possibly a combined backlit mirror/shaver socket. It's as easy for me to take a spur off an adjacent ring main, as it is to use the lighting circuit. So, I wonder which is preferable. (Q1) If I take it off the...
