Solution

route through tool box for junior hack saw

ahhhh......junior hacksaw

lob off a few strands

perfect fit

however unable to fasten socket back due to cable size

route through tool box to find lump hammer

smash each socket back with brute force

Job well done !! Note to self .. bring along NIC inspector on next visit, this will really get me some browny points.

I personally wouldn't use a lump hammer unless the sockets were metal clad. A far better solution is to open up the screw holes on the socket, drill through the backbox and then use these http://www.screwfix.com/prods/17637/Fixings/Shield-Anchors/Shield-Anchor- Stud-Type-10-x-125mm-Drill-Size-16-Pack-of-5 to pull the plate back to the wall.

I call it "No More Brains" seeing as its use requires none. Just had to destroy three tiles to fish out the end of an open ring behind the partition wall of a "professionally installed" kitchen (18mths old!) box had been "fixed" with half a tube of this jizz! Part P? Laugh? I nearly filled me socks!

Hi,
thanks everyone for your help, and those that just took the p*ss thanks for the encouragement. Think I have this sorted now. Im sure you will have a lot more questions from me in the future.
Thanks

Ian, when did he mention working near children?

Adults use classrooms too!

I also think on a big job like this it would be done out of hours or in their holidays not when classrooms are full.

Nothing more distracting during double history than a sparky standing on a desk, complete with dirty boots changing a light fitting.
