I suspect this is the case of an existing circuit and then someone lashing another to it because they cannot be be bothered to employ correct installation methods by using an additional protective device at a spare way or advising the existing board has inadequate capacity.
Based on what evidence? Whilst this is possibly what has happened, there is nothing in the regulations to prevent a circuit being extended in this way.
If a radial socket circuit has the capacity for additional sockets, then why not extend it from the DB if that's the most logical place to connect it? Surely this is better than adding an additional joint into the circuit somewhere?
