    MK Egatube boxes

    I don't think the ega ones are made anymore. I have tried to get flush plastic boxes myself and failed. Builder I work with is of the opinion that plastic should be used when plastering with lime , which is starting to happen more often now.

    I would do the same as you. Had a similar situation once and when I rang the WPD call centre they did not want to know , would not acknowledge that the TNS supply was anything to do with them and it was down to me to sort it out. Fortunately I had the phone number of the local office and was...

I fitted two 30 watt fittings over a farm yard in Oct 2015 and two weeks ago fitted...
