Dunno if the pictures will appear in the order I uploaded them but you'll get the gist of it

It's amazing really. How long would it have taken to put that in choc block or even (god forbid) just twisted together covered in sleeving!

I've only been doing this two years. When was it acceptable to not have an earthing point in a switch, let alone connections hidden in the wall ??

Better to not twist earths together if you can! :wink5:
