Socket / Blanking Plate Advice

ebeanz

I'm getting a conservatory removed which has two double sockets in it. They are spurred off two other sockets inside the house and the company who are taking the conservatory down said that they can just disconnect the sockets, I assume they'll fit blanking plates. As theses blanked off sockets will be on an external wall I just wanted to know if this option was OK / safe or should I be looking at another option?

Thanks

This is it

If they're on external walls, facing outside once the conservatory is removed, then they should be disconnected at the point where they're spurred,and cable removed if possible. You can then fill what's on the external walls.

Why not fit an appropriately rated replacement socket for one of them. Can be very handy to have an outside socket. Assuming location is suitable

There's already one of those on the external dwarf wall which is staying

Best to remove as suggested above. Cable may not be suitable for outdoors.
