Do these items exist?

1) Plastic or other non-conductive screws to fix faceplate onto metal pattress box. I have used some sunken backboxes and blanking faces in my kitchen to provide accessible joins in the cabling and would like to make sure in the event of any wiring coming loose and making the box live, the screws won't become live.

2) Flexible gaskets for between faceplate and wall/backbox. So that if condensation starts running down the kitchen walls, it won't seep behind the electrical faceplates.

3) Wall-mounted pull-cord switch. I have my extractor plugged into a high up wall socket. Currently I am using a remote controlled adapter plug to turn it on and off, but it would be nice to find a pull-cord switch that could be fitted instead of the socket face.

Maybe these blank plates by ultimate are what you want as they have covers over the screws:

Yes! That looks ideal for my requirement #1, thank you!

As long as the backbox is earthed (which it should be anyway) having the screws exposed is not an issue.

FYI, you can get nylon screws, but ^what plugwash said^

Oh I haven't seen those before! Do you happen to know what "M" size is appropriate for standard backboxes?

 

[RF Lighting]

M3.5
