    Old 30amp junction box

    Hi All Just found in my loft a 30amp round junction box on lighting circuit with 7x1.5mm T&E cables going into it. It doesn't look very tidy with the earths twisted together on outside of box. Would it be ok to change this to a Wago XL box and Wago connectors. Thank you for your help.
