A bit of a dilema guys, I have a customer who has fitted a sink directly in front of a dual socket,... well the drainer is, and within 300mm of the bowl edge. This is now used to feed a wall hung instant water boiler (kettle thingy) so I need to keep the supply there.... BUT ....
The splash back is a finished surface, granite actually, so digging out the dual box, sinking in a single for a spur socket and repairing the decor is out of the question.
Im trying to find something like a double plate, 3 gang grid switch with fuse carrier, 20amp switch and flex outlet ..... any ideas? Any other suggestions.
 
MK grid plus range have what you need, though I wouldnt be happy leaving it so close to the sink. You will need a 3 module faceplate and grid, then get individual switch, fuse carrier and blank. Dont have the catalogue to hand for the part numbers but you can find them on the MK Electric web site.
