RE: PR511 mounting options

["Dean Smith" <ukha@xxxxxxx>]

I ended up cutting a disc out of 1" thick wood the same size as the
PR11,
then cut a hole in the middle for the wiring and a small area out of
the
disc for cable/trunking entry. Stained the disc the same as the rest of
the
house woodwork (i.e. dark brown). Screwed through all four holes in the
PR511 base through the disc into the wall. Brown Sealant between wall
and
wood, and used the normal gasket between wood and PR511.

In practice you'dont notice that the PR511 base is actually now an inch
or
so thick. Dark wood against dark red brick so it doesn't stand out at
all.
If it was light coloured render then I think it would have been a
different
story altogether.

What have any of you chaps with PR511's used as a mounting box?

It *needs* a round electrical box, but all the ones I've seen are
conduit
boxes with side-entry...

I want one that's like a standard square surface box with options for
cable
entry via knockouts... (I have the cable coming straight through the
wall,
and I want rear-entry into the box so that no cable or cable conduit is
visible).

Suggestions would be appreciated, - especially if the item in question
turns
out to be available from Homebase/B&Q etc...

TIA

Paul G.
