If it cheers you up any, this is the absolute pisstake by the loft convertor's plasterer. Yes, that sensor is functional, powered up and part of our alarm system.

Problem with those is you can't open them to move them without knowing the alarm code because they are tamper proof.

On a similar note (not aimed at you in particular @brokenbetty), there are a bunch of these in my flat - all painted over. Is there any easy way to tell if they're still live so I can remove them? Or do I just have to treat them as if they're live and turn off at the consumer unit then remove and make the cable ends loop?
Or just paint over them again in the new colour that we're doing...

How much should I care about this sort of workmanship from my electrician? About 3 such locations. They've been under the floor running cables. I wasn't expecting the greatest of cabinet maker-esque craftsmanship but this is a particularly annoying effort, and it's the first thing you see when walking in my front door.
Gut feel is I should just chalk it up to experience and learn how to DIY a floor board replacement.
