Well many moons ago I bought some outdoor switches of French origin that did
more or less this, but it was silly as in this case the depth of the box was
far greater than ours!

Have you ever tried to cram a dimmer into a normal wall box without
resorting to one of those spacer thingies? Nightmare.

Pet hate is the back box for sockets and switches. The way of cramming in
the cables is crude. Especially as if you change a fitting the termianls
can be in a different configuration.

I would like to suggest - for your views!

The circuit cables attached to a terminal block that is a part of the back
box. The switch or socket would be connected to that block with a fly lead
that would be an integral part of that switch / socket with a Wago type
connector.

Any sympathy for this idea?
