Hi all. Hope you are well.
So my dad has just bought a new induction oven. He already has an electric oven under it which appears that it is hardwired from 6mm T&E that literally just comes out of the wall 🤦🏻♂️
the new induction hob has 5 wires (which obviously has doubled up lives and...
Hi,
Have a question about wago connectors.
Looking for suitable wagos for connecting 4mm twin and earth stranded (7 strands), I already have some 221-412 wagos but on reading the specification it stated that they are suitable for use with solid and fine-strand 0.4mm to 4mm. If it is that they...
Hi there can you leave a wago connection joint in a wall to plastered over Evan if your using the wago connector box that wagos go on but then iam under the consumption that every electrical joint has to be accessible ?
Hi Guys,
I have seen this in a loft and wondering if it is legal, the junction box is open of course.
also one cable (1.5mm flex connects to a 3amp labelled FCU to an extension lead).
it seemed the cables weren't able to fit as it was jam packed and someone added some wagos ontop.
Can i keep...
Nobody wants a full rewire in an occupied property, but here is an opportunity...and for those who love to extend cables to fix a new installation, this is your best chance ever!

In a ring if there is a 30A screw terminal junction box in the ring one spur can be taken off this. The j box terminals have three cables in them.
Each cable in a Wago (or an in-Sure) has it own connection slot for each wire. This makes a difference.
Wagos are mini bus bars. If a 32A four...
To my fellow Australian or Kiwi Sparks is there any stipulation on using Wagos rather than BP’s in the AS/NZ 3000? Can’t seem to find anything and they’re starting to sell them here.
Morning all.
I am replacing a 1g socket, with a 2g socket. Because I cant (cant be bothered :tearsofjoy:) make the hole in the wall bigger, I am going to make it surface mounted.
The cables are too short, and they do no stretch the extra distance to cover the backbox. Ive been told about these...
Evening all,
Was just wondering when extending a ring main from a socket (not a spur but keeping it as a ring ) I have always been told to crimp cables through but would it be acceptable to use wago style lever connectors instead, as the connections are accessible anyway inside the back box...
Hi all - have discovered a damaged cable in the loft - seems to be from the 1st Floor Lights Ring Circuit. Have cut the cable and reconnected it with Wago Connectors - see pics (yes i have switched off electricity and tested the cable was dead before cutting). This particular cable has 4 cables...
I've seen some use Quickwire and others use Wago 221 in a Wago box for lights. A lot of people still use Wago, is it because it's cheaper? what do you use?
Whats your thoughts on Wago's? Always preferred a JB or crimps myself. Wago's just don't seem right to me.
There a lot quicker but don't seem so secure.
Whats your guys thoughts?
Hi, Just recently qualified.
I've replaced some old 32amp junction boxes under the floor in my landing with Wago and Wago boxes to make them maintenance free prior to putting down new flooring.
Prior to doing this, i tested the ring continuity, r1 was 0.52 ohms, rn was 0.53 and r2 was 0.73, so...
