hello. looking for some advice on a trailing socket that is under my sink. its for the dishwasher but is not fixed or sealed. its just a wire going to a box with the plug in it. is this allowed as I thought that sockets must be 450 from the floor? regards

socket should be mountec on the wall, or at worst on the kitchen base unit. preferably situated where it's not likely to get wet. the 450mm height is only applicable to new builds to make it easier for disabled persons to reach.
bad idea. the bags have had their IP integrity compromised with holes to stop sprogs suffocating. HSE would rather that they be electrocuted.

'Plug socket'........ Don't you just love technical jargon!

I have an ex-wife wrapped in a plastic bag AND a sleeping bag under mine.
Fits perfectly since I cut her in half. :devil2:
