[QUOTE="fatbob88, post: 391549, member: 12143"] Thanks for your input ProDave. I think they come from the output side of his consumer unit and then go into the chased bit of the wall above and then off to the individual circuits, cooker, ring main lighting etc etc Below the shelf, if you can call it that, is the recess which forms a cupboard in the neighbours hallway where his meter and consumer unit reside. Why it was necessary for the cables to stick through I don't know. You would have thought they would have been clipped to the wall of the back of the cupboard before they went up through the chased out wall. He had all the wiring embedded in the walls and all the walls re-plastered, even had the ceilings skimmed as well. Anyway, I used to throw my garden shears up on that shelf when I was finished with them. Perhaps not such a good idea if I can't get him to get them boxed in! There is a wood shelf already above that one and no space for any more so no danger of drilling into the cables. [/QUOTE]
