Default replace electricity cable

Hi,

I was stripping some wallpaper and managed to cut into the leccy cable
with my scraper above a light switch. The cable was part buried into
the wall but the surface of it was flush and 'hidden' by the wallpaper
(Luckily I'd switched the power off at the box..)

Am not planning on doing it myself because I have little leccy
experience bar replacing plug sockets etc-just wondered to what depth a
replacement cable should be buried into the wall?

thanks
Charlie
