Hello all,
I'm renovating the kitchen and want to tidy up the mess that is the meter area which will be seen often inside the cupboard.
Just wondering about these old cut off cables to the left in the big black tube. They look switched off so would it be safe to assume I could just cut them down to the wall and plaster over them? Also there is some sort of small wire sticking out of the white patch of filler to the right where one of the electrical cables is feeding into. I can touch it so can assume that is ok to cut?
Lastly there is a big iron pipe in the corner with electrical cable running through it that has been severed. This pipe gets in the way of fitting the unit (meaning the unit needs to have a space cut out) thought do you think its safe to just cut the pipe at the base with an oscillating saw or something?
Cheers.
