Talking of socket position, this one was installed a few days ago. Is this a good position?
Actually I don't see much of a problem - most of those type of sockets are IP66 (IP55 at worst) so are claimed to provide adequate protection from water jets from any direction - either with or without a plug in place. OK it could be abused - e.g. the lid left open - but that would be an issue outdoors where ever it was located. Which regulation would anyone quote against it?
