Is this an acceptable solution? Does it comply with current regulation?


As long as all cabling is within 15cm of the edge of a wall, or within
a 15cm wide zone horizontally and vertically aligned with a *visible*
outlet, it's ok. See the wiki:

Has to be visible - I've seen a job where the cable ran in a neat
horizontal and vertical to an invisibly buried junction box.
