Do I need to use plastic back boxes for Lime plaster? Discussion ThreadDo I need to use plastic back boxes for Lime plaster? Electrical Advice
The customer has specified plastic recessed back boxes and stainless steel screws for a rewire, as it will all be lime plaster. Is this absolutely necessary?
If so, I have found the marshall tufflex boxes, but finding the right screws seem harder. I can find 30mm stainless stell socket screws, but it would be great to have some 40mm and 50mm or longer (that I can chop). Does anyone know where to get these?
Also, any cheaper options than the expensive Marshall Tufflex recessed plastic boxes?
Thanks.
