[QUOTE="Revved Up Sparky, post: 427975, member: 5050"] Thanks guys. Unless I am mistaken the out of reach rule only applies if the area is occupied by skilled or instructed persons. These are sheltered flats that will be occupied by elderly disabled people. The job is coming to a close now so I think it would be very difficult to recess those baseplates in the ceiling now. Dave's suggestion to find a neat junction box that fits in that gap sounds like a good idea. My concern is that someone could visit, perhaps a grandchild with a toy with a long conductive material that could find it's way onto one of those connector blocks. I agree that the fittings are carp. [/QUOTE]
