Hi guys
I need to sink the below single socket into wall but want to know best way.
I've done 3 sockets in another room already so the actual labour part I'm fine with. I just want to check the best way to attack this one as the area I need to work on is underneath cable.
It's fed from upstairs but then goes through the wall to a double the other side...(see below)
How can I make the area safe (obviously turn electric off) to work, is it best to cut cable at ceiling and fit some wago connectors? Or shall I turn electric off and unscrew face and detach cable from socket and move cable out the way and remove socket?
I could do with the electric still working in the other room as it has another socket that is fed from above on another wall...not sure if this is part of same ring? So don't want the rcd tripping if the circuit has a break?
Thanks!
