[QUOTE="ProDave, post: 435948, member: 6969"] The height is a building reg thing, not a wiring reg thing. So on a rewire completely irellevant. Even on a new build. it is only "general purpose" switches and sockets that have to stick to those heights. you can fit a dedicated socket for a special purpose at any height, probably the most common example these days is a socket high on the wall for a wall mounted tv. If building control kick up a fuss, stick a label on it "vacuum cleaner only" and it's no longer a general purpose socket. [/QUOTE]
