Bathrooms 🇮🇪 Ireland
Can you put a socket in a bathroom in Ireland?
A normal 230 V socket only if it's more than 3 m horizontally from the zone 1 boundary, and RCD-protected. Shaver supply units (to BS EN 61558-2-5) are allowed in zone 2 and beyond.
Standard socket ≥ 3 m from zone 1
Regulation: I.S. 10101:2020+A1:2024 701.512.3.
Study aid in plain English, not the text of the standard. Always check the current I.S. 10101 and your local rules. Electrical work must be done by a licensed or registered electrician.
