Relocation of kitchen so let etc

Hi all was wondering what you all do when asked to relocate sockets during a kitchen refit, specifically where you have made a joint in an existing 2G backbox which is no longer going to be used?


Do you just fit a blanking plate over, let the tiler tile over or terminate in wago connectors and let the plaster bury the joint?

    Chris,

    i just think it comes down to common sense, there's also a dishwasher adjacent to where one off the joints has been made the cable for which is in copex has its fed from the joint, just a quick check and you'd see the copex and think to yourself it's coming from above. Prior to doing my electrical course I'd always have a quick check by opening an outlet and looking which way the cables ran before drilling, including checking the other side of the wall for electrical points, radiators etc to me it's just something I've always done ?
