But if you put the hammer and a feather in a vacuum they would hit the bottom of the vacuum tube at the same time if released at the same time.

Why not run the swa in a length of pvc conduit? then if needs be you can remove/replace the cable. :wink:

Ban I Think I've confused you (my fault) Quote from the book Accessories (Sockets,switches) should be installed a minimum of 300mm from the edge of a sink/draining board so as to minimise the risk of splashing. (horizontal distance) To prevent damage to the plug top and flexible...
