There should be a way of using this, assuming you are only going to use small loads. It looks like there is a single back box behind. If you get a double or even a triple CONVERTA socket (names vary), you should be able to have a flush socket that should cover most if not all of the hole in the...

What about that in-line fuse, that's floating about? Is that anything to do with it?

What does the customer say about it all?

Probably easiest to get an electrician to move they grey tails - by running them across the top of the consumer unit, then into the right hand side of the cu. He would longer tails. He will have to put some kind of bung in the bottom of the cu to get rid of the hole. Can't you just build round...

Are you certain the single red went in with the other reds?

The POINT is this. The electrician should have a look FIRST. BASED only from the limited pictures we HAVE, get a consumer unit where the main switch is on the RIGHT HAND side. Smaller circuit cables can be easily extended if necessary.

You should be able to use CLICK POLAR. (Not Click Mode - it's curved.) The switch modules can be removed very easily, and you should be able to a) buy a regular 2 gang 2 way switch, and a regular 1 gang intermediate switch, and alter them. b) or buy most of the separate parts, and build it up.

BG is total rubbish, but shouldn't happen. DO you think you over-tightened the face plate screws? OR, since it's the 2 and 3 gang ones only, is there more wiring at the back, and the back box is too shallow, and you've FORCED the face plate back to the wall, causing strain on the faceplate...

Would recommend you wait until spring or summer before painting that lot.

What IS that growing on the vent brick? Some sort of mushroom?

Is for something temporary, or will it be there all year round and beyond? Xmas lights?

As said, what's actually wrong with it? Are you concerned it's under a sink? If so, don't be. You can get leaks ANYWHERE.

So it's always going to get wet then? Did you apply a mist coat to bare plaster first? Are you using bathroom paint? Could you tile this area?

Make a great hamburger box.

And rated at 15 amp. I envisaged this would be used for adding a new circuit such as an immersion, or a 15 amp socket, or lights - where the existing fuse box would be full. I don't think a double pole switch was considered important. I think even as recent as the early 60s, a fuse carrier as...

The Flameport Museum.

Would that be primarily for double pole fusing? Can't really see what else you could do with it, without effort. EDIT. Whoops, it says DP on the box, so...

How did it go?

You say the wall is wet. Do you know HOW the wall is getting wet? Is it getting wet from the outside of the wall? Or id the wall getting wet behind the paint?

I'd be inclined to fit a 13amp unswitched FCU behind the oven - just in case some engineer came to mend the oven, and said it's out of guarantee because no 13amp fuse. However, tomorrow I'd be probably inclined to say something completely different, and say that the 16 or 20 amp mcb or rcbo is...
