[QUOTE="binky, post: 457152, member: 490"] I've been looking at various versions of the safe zone diagrams, I find it interesting that none depict skirting boards or door frames, I also think it interesting that the safe zone is extended to a doorway - where could a cable possibly go after that? This just might be yet another 'grey' area or a simplified diagram, and I am not a fan of runing cables in these locations, (although you don't really have a choice for an architrave switch). But to me, nothing in the text or diagrams precludes this, and so, as a means of sorting out an issue I don't think it is really a problem, especially if you put the wood bits back yourself, and have additional protection in the form of an RCD. Would I do this by choice, generally not. [/QUOTE]
