Remove and hide this

[Ragamuffin]

Evening all.

Following some brilliant help yesterday I have returned for more advice .

I currently have this horrendous live point randomly situated in the middle of my wall.

I would ideally like to remove this and cover it.

My question is, can you please recommend something to isolate each wire, waygos are too big to fit in the recess and how one would go about covering it?

Could I fill over it, but the only problem is that there will be live wires there in future, I am unable to see where the wires go, the other side of the wall is a cupboard under the stairs with no visible wire, the cable seems to be coming from the top rather than from the bottom.

I have switched all my breakers off individually to see what circuit it runs on but it has remained live all the time, live only drops out when the main breaker is switched off.

Any suggestions would be great.

OK thanks. They both seem to be roughly the same height? As you say maybe it was moved previously to make way for the sliding door!
If they are stud or cavity walls it's possible to fish cables if you're lucky!

I'm still concerned that you apparently have power on your junction box when you switch off all the breakers. That should be impossible! Did you switch off all the breakers at the same time - ie all off together?
If when you checked, you actually switched breakers off one at a time and worked through them all, but you detected a voltage all the time, that supports my theory it might be a ghost voltage, indicated by your contactless tester, but the cable is not actually connected to anything.

I think you are right, I was wondering about the holes in the wall.....may have been done by an ambitious wet pants, if so original cable may still be wired in somehow? OP needs to check with proper voltage tester.
