only for new build, general rennovations not included, not sure about new extensions, dont think so, but dont have my book here.
IIRC its 450mm upwards lowest point of accessory, 1200mm max, highest point of accessory.(might be wrong though)
also its not just sockets and switches, it accessories, so FCUs etc are the same requirements.
damn, must type faster...

Yep thought those figures were right. We are having to have the house re-wired (over 25 years since it was done) but we wanted to keep the light switches and sockets where they are to cut down on the mess !! Is it law then that this has to be aheared too ?? Just a question - what are FCU's ??
