Hi,

We would like to have installed new single powerpoints which are on the skirting boards of our old house. However the existing ones we have are of an odd size, and we were told that if we want them that size we need to source them ourselves.

https://Upload the image directly to the thread.com/a/KQ7Nbxr (photo of the old switch, probable from the 60s?)

The height is the odd part, which measures 57mm. The mounting screws are ok being about 85mm and the length isn't an issue.

We have tried Bunnings and online stores, but can't seem to find this size height, most are around 70mm or there are narrow ones but too small at 43mm, and so wondering if it is even possible to buy anymore?

Would anyone out there know if such a size exists anymore??
 
TL;DR
Does a 57mm height single powerpoint still exist?

Therein lies the problem. I see no merit in further circular debate, so will bow out of this discussion.
