Just a follow up question to my radiator/socket one above. As far as I can see it's acceptable within building regs to have a blanking plate behind a radiator (and definitely preferable to plastering over it!). It will be accessible in case of a fault by dropping the rad.
I'm going to put some radiator reflector foil behind the rad which will cover the blanking plate and the cable in the wall, but do I need to do anything additional to protect the cable joint and the cable from potential heat from the rad? I imagine that the heat on the wall will be well below anything that might damage the cable once the reflector foil is in place.
