    I’m installing a washing machine. The existing socket is behind it. I’m a bit concerned as there maybe a point in the future where it could get wet. Leaks etc.

    Are there any covers etc, to avoid moving the socket? Cheers.

    I generally find that washing machines aren't too bad but dishwashers usually require every available millimetre of depth.

    The best solution is to leave it where it is and stop worrying.
