Currently, I have a socket for my gas cooker that has another socket spurred off it for my under counter fridge. A little like the attached image of mine, but without the dual outlet plate and just spurring straight off the back of the socket under the counter.
I plan on putting some eBay LED light strips under the cupboards in the kitchen, but for logistical reasons - the socket would need to be on the other side of the kitchen ~2m away. Would it be safe for me to spur off the cooker switch in the cupboard for a socket that would sit atop the cupboard further around the room. If so, would it need an FCU. This is all well within tolerance of the size of the breaker, I just get a bit confused with what is and isn't okay on a radial circuit (with a ring, I'd just whack an FCU if I needed an additional spur, but I know it's not a spur when it's a radial circuit).
