Hi there,
I am in the middle of installing a new kitchen and with this the place of the hob has moved and put one of the sockets in a unallowed zone so this socket needs to be moved .
The ring wire comes down from the ceiling and into the socket and runs in a metal conduit .
Now from what I know it is not a safe bet to join the new length of wire to the original and cover it over with a wall covering (we are having a tekwall back splash fitted) and as you can imagine we don't really want a cover plate showing.
So what would be that best course of action to solve this problem.
Thank you for your help darreb
