Flat plate sockets usually require a deeper than normal back box,

Have you mentioned this to your electrician at first fix stage,? 

 

 

Yes I did mention it to him. I don't think the walls will be a problem but we can make a judgement call when they're finished.  

Just interested in any recommendations from the experts.

I don't very often fit flat plate,

So can't really make a recommendation on them,

For normal sockets, I find Click (as mentioned previously) or Hager to be of a good standard for the price.
