Electric cable
1 Answers
I have removed plaster board walls from my bathroom leaving loose electric cable which used to be for wall lights. I intend to put up new plasterboard but not new lights so what do I do with the electric cable? As long as I put insulation tape it - can it stay behind the plasterboard safely?

If you have a socket or wall lights up then people know to check where the cable lies before doing anything that may cut into the cable but if there is nothing there to prompt them to check then they won't.
