Electric mirror in a bathroom
Hi everyone
I have just got a new mirror with lights in it for the bathroom. It has a 'shaver' plug on it. What I would like to do is wire it directly from a pull cord switch. Is there any reason why I could not cut off this shaver plug and wire it into a fused spur with the pull cord switch, or is there something special about the power coming from a shaver socket that would mean I would have to have one of these? It would be nice to hide the wires too, but for ease of removal I guess that will not be possible, unless I could find a flush 'vertical' socket. By that I mean one that I can plug into vertically, rather than horizontally, behind the mirror and keep it as close to the wall as possible. Is there such a thing?
