Been thinking I ought to do this, particularly as we have a fridge/freezer on the same circuit as the hifi ![Frown :( :(](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
It's slightly complicated, as the room with the hifi in is a long way away from the meter. In facr, we have a run of armoured cable that goes half way there, which is on a single large ampage micro circuit breaker. This then feeds a secondary fuse board (though it's all MCBs again). I'd have to run the separate spur from this point. Even then, I'll probably have to run armoured cable round the outside of the house, as this part is single storey, with no access to parts of the roofspace.
So, questions:

So, questions:
- Will this still be worthwhile (I'm sure it will)?
- Anything I can do re earthing, or should I just rely on the earth feed that comes into the secondary fuse board?
- I have a spare positon in the secondary fuse board, and assume I'll use another MCB - rating?
- Recommendations for cable to use in this situation? How flexible will it be - I need to get round corners...
