Blanking Plate Challenge.

I had to fit a double blanking plate today over an old metal box. The socket was like this with four securing screws. I imagined that I would have to drill at least two if not four holes accurately in the new blanking plate but>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>the answer presented itself. How?

  • Yep, I found that the metal box in the wall did in fact have six lugs.

    Yes quite common - but many accessories didn't seem to take that into account, so often one set had to be bent back out of the way...
