Frequently Asked

What is a blanking plate for?

A blanking plate covers an unused electrical back box, giving a safe, finished surface where there is no socket or switch and hiding any capped-off wiring behind a flush plate.

Do I need a back box for a blanking plate?

Yes — the plate fixes to a standard back box of the matching gang size; the box is ordered separately.

Does a metal blanking plate need earthing?

Metalclad plates carry an earth terminal and should be earthed as part of a compliant installation. Installation should be carried out by a competent person in accordance with BS 7671.
