    Flush mounted pull cord backbox and theories

    Hi all, It just popped into my head about bathroom pull cord switches, do they ever have flush mounting boxes, every one I have seen has been surface mounted, and also, why are shower pull cords cut shorter, which I see in most places?

    Surface mounted wiring into recessed box for boiler?

    We are now 18 weeks into a six week project. There are so many things that just seem a bit botched. I'd be grateful for any advice - is this usual, legal, acceptable? 1. The electrician suggested a grid pattern for down lighters but now that the plastering is done the lights are very off...

    I'm looking for a PIR sensor that will replace a standard light switch but the ones I can find are £40+, which seems a little silly considering you can get a standalone wall mounted PIR for about a tenner. Any recommendations anyone?

    Surface mounted plastic patresses
