    Under cabinet lighting question

    Okay thanks very much. I will look into this solution. I can ge tthe power cable to the top of the cabs but they are 920 high so they finish a few mm from the ceiling with no service voids (Hello Ikea). I will look at hiding them within the top of the cupboard perhaps. Sorry I couldn't give...

    9 wire plugs and the yellow peril - can u help?

    Hi, this is a kitchen but I can't give a definite answer on if they powered appliances. The kitchen as it is now was put in 10 years ago by the previous owner. Prior to that maybe appliance were rigged here but the 45A cooker wiring and fused socket for the extractor are on a different wall. The...

    9 wire plugs and the yellow peril - can u help?

    No, sorry John, You just beat me in posting time, I wasn't dismissing the above. Thank you both for your replies. The detector I used was a good quality screwdriver type device good to 10,000V. I have a voltmeter if this would be better? The wires definitely all go back up the wall, you...

    This is correct, box 3. The "7mm" wire is angled slightly giving the illusion of being 7mm.

    9 wire plugs and the yellow peril - can u help?

    Thanks very much. What could the yellow and blues be attached to? A switch of some kind? There is nothing else in the vicinity except a double socket 3 feet below but I think this is wired separately. I will see if I can tell where they go to. If it's not possible is it time to call in...
