I know that if an electrical connection is to be plastered over it must
be
crimped or soldered.

No electrical wire or connection should be plastered over.

Care to expand on this point?

99.9% of UK houses have plastered in wiring. I thought surface mount
went out in 1955.

It's about the last time Alan Holmes did anything electrical :-)
