Schneider ElectricLisse White Moulded, Single Socket Spacer, GGBLSPC1S, White

I had fitted a wall panel as a decorative covering and this increased the depth of the wall covering to make the socket recessed which wasn't very good to use so i bought these extension pieces, basically you take off the face plate and install this behind it, you may need longer screws but i had some longer ones on hand. This brings the face plate 5mm further forward, enough in my case to compensate for the decoration without having to install a new back box. Make sure you have the same profile/shape to your face plate before you buy but its a good product and i would highly recommend it

The plane went on fairly easily but you'll need longer screws to secure it, the ones in the pack are too short. The shelf part holds a phone comfortably but when I was charging my ear pods it was too narrow to hold them. Ideal if you have a socket near your cooker and your following a recipe.

I recently had to replace an old dimmer switch. I bought a BG switch, but it was slightly deeper than the old one, and didn't fit the pattress box (is that the right term?).I didn't want to have to remove the existing one and chop out some of the wall, so I looked for an adapter. I worried slightly because it's a different brand and a very slightly different shape, but in fact it fitted fine, with the screw holes in the right places, and looks perfectly acceptable.

Excellent👍

Be aware that the screw holes are recessed into the spacer from both sides which will cause issues with many smart light switches (a common need for a spacer for shallow back boxes). You can see this in the photos but I assumed one side would be flush.Many smart light switches have a backplate which connects to the wiring and then a front which clips on top. The backplate is a smaller profile than the front, so when you screw in the backplate with the spacer, the entire thing will nestle inside the recessed area where the holes are, and mean that the front can't clip on. I had to add several washers between the spacer and the backplate, which isn't ideal.It seems like a better design would be to have one side recessed and one side flush so that the user could decide which way round to install the spacer.

Some of the moulding edges were a little sharp, but overall I am pleased with it.

After buying an Aqara smart light switch and discovering that the pattress box wasn't deep enough to take it, I was left with either the messy option of boring out a deeper recess in the wall, or picking up a spacer. I decided on the latter as I'm not that handy with a chisel and would probably end up destroying the wall!It's a nicely made spacer and has screw guide holes which keep it in place and help to screw everything back into the wall. There's no rough edges and feels like it'd cope with being under a bit of pressure. So far, so good.Unfortunately, 10mm is still slightly less than I need it to be and there's a 1-2mm gap all around the switch where it still won't go in far enough. Also, it doesn't quite mate up with the outside of the switch, so it's not as neat as I'd have liked either. I suspect, unless you're very lucky, this will be the norm. It'll do for now, but I think I might have to dig the chisels out after all.

So I replaced a light switch and the new switch was slightly deeper than the old switch and the back box was shallow. This fairly cheap product overcomes this issue by providing more depth and space at the back therefore reducing the amount of effort required to alternate solution of replacing back box.
