What conduit for 16a socket

[Westfield-builder]

thats posh you could have used the mcb as isolators as the sockets are next to the db

You could, yes. But the mcb only switches the live, so not total isolation. Those isolators will be Double Pole.

I went with that type when I did mine, fitted 16A & 32A "just in case"

Went for same when having new garage wired. 16amp outside for the caravan, 32amp inside for the welder.

Yep, our stores seemed to go through a lot of MK 13a double sockets despite most of the factory being wired with commando sockets!

You can get a 16amp socket/isolator as one unit https://www.superlecdirect.com/p-gw...MIrsrTq7fs8wIVSJ7tCh3NVw7CEAQYAiABEgI7nPD_BwE

Yep, that did look like a good price. I think Screwfix were about £130!
