Should you really be fixing electrical accessories to the kitchen cupboards?? :-/ I might be wrong!

 

[ashrow]

i can see one problem with this...................

no seals on the cover screws for the tails isolator?
(in my opinion, it looked like a great job and wish my every day work looked like that, but alas clients and prices for the works do not give me the time to be some damn neat)

 

[DurhamSparky]

whats wrong with that...! ??? not like they going to be moved any time soon... and it looks better than having a unsightly hole chopped out back of the unit!

[Swicade]

Every time now for me.

Are them sockets either side of the cooker level with each other or is it an optical illusion?

It's the customer's isolator, not the DNO/suppliers, so no reason for seals. Despite the fact that I put it on the DNO's backboard, which was commented on but accepted as reasonable by the meter fitter.

Yes, it's nice to do a job for someone who appreciates a good quality job and is prepared to pay for it. Not all my jobs are as tidy! (But never shoddy, I hasten to add.)

Try putting your sockets 1100 mm ( bottom of box) above the work tops it will look better on your pics

Go on then, what have you done with the sockets? Looks like a triumph of style over substance to me.

Is the metal can thing hung from the ceiling a recirculating cooker hood?

It's a horrible kitchen :uhoh2: 60k doesn't buy taste unfortunately. The sockets all 2 of them are at the ends of the fitted units so look from either end and you see them not my idea but hey I'm not the "designer" so what would I know lol. The kitchen dust bin suspended from the ceiling is indeed the extractor :sick:

 

[DurhamSparky]

yes they are bang level..... had the laser running accross it every step of the way...!!

unfortunately the heights and positions were dictated to me by client... including the product spec "crabtree"
