The distribution box is buried too deep in the wall
Sunken outlets occur when the electrical box, the housing unit designed to hold electrical components, is recessed too far into the wall. This can happen due to several reasons, such as improper installation, shifts in the building structure, or shrinkage of wall materials over. I have an electrical box that is set about 1/8" too deep in the wall so when the switchplate is installed the receptable plugs are sunken into the plate and recessed. This misalignment can not only. This is a perfectly normal installation with a 'remodel box' - it uses the blue tabs on the surface of the wall to hold itself in place, screw bracket type arms on the back. You can look for cover plates that have more depth if necessary. Edit - I only saw the first pic. Go to big box store &. No description has been added to this video. When building the wall, the reserved hole shall be about 20mm larger than the length and width of the distribution box. Installed metal back boxes and cabling into walls of outhouse conversion - went back today and customer has increased depth of celotex on walls to 100mm (was 25mm)! All boarded and skimmed.

Egyptian thermal passage 800mm deep
Egypt's Great Pyramids of Giza may hold a secret tomb yet to be discovered by archaeologists. Thermal cameras have recently detected higher than expected temperatures in three adjacent stones at the bottom of the Great Pyramid of Khufu, which may indicate a hidden chamber. Temperature anomalies have been recorded in the 4,500-year-old burial structures, including a major one in the largest. Built during the Fourth Dynasty of the Old Kingdom, around 2580–2560 BC, it was constructed as a tomb for Pharaoh Khufu, and it remains one of the Seven Wonders of the Ancient World.
