Is it ok to spike a socket across an inner wall
Have wired in a few sockets and one is above a cross beam in an inner wall that i wanted to drop down but hole in beam only enough for one twin and earth
Cant get access to open or drill hole as its behind splash-back
But across from where i want socket in other side of wall in other room is socket (single wired end of ring?)
So can spike from it but would mean very short twin and earth (6ins maybe) would this shortness cause a problem
 
Hello back again anyone here replaced their gas boiler
And if so when you switch off gas how do you get rid of excess in the pipes?











Joking but has anyone seen this kind of pipe for a bath and if so whats it called

That’s a sinusoidal deplenerator. I haven’t seen one in years. They used to be used to connect the tremie pipes in first generation turboencabulators.

Screwfix will have them. I can’t find them on their website, I suggest you ask in store.

That's an easy one. Turn gas back on. Turn on gas oven. Stick head in oven. When you become unconscious, you have got rid of all the air in the gas pipes.
