Default Hairdryer in a bathroom
What are the options for fitting hairdryers in bathrooms? I want to fit a normal hairdryer rather than one of those hot-air tube types. Can I tear off the plug and hard wire to a spur in Zone 3?

Zones are areas in which specific equipment and circuits may be installed - or not. Areas such as bathrooms are regarded as areas of potential danger. So the room is designated such that you can or cannot use or touch some appliances when in a bath/shower cubicle etc.
