Discuss Junction boxes too deep for wall in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Timbo, yes was almost going to do this and would maybe get away with it with one box but one of them protrudes so much that I have to shave it down so far that the wires either wouldn't fit or I'd be jamming them in which isn't good. I'll consider getting someone in to sort out, seems like its not something I can do. Thanks for the suggestions.
