    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.

    Wagos on Final Ring Circuits

    Wagos In Aus?

    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.

    Cables too short in backbox

    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.

    Wago vs Quickwire

    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?

    Wagos vs Crimps vs junction boxes?

    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?

Prior to doing this, i tested the ring continuity, r1 was 0.52 ohms, rn was 0.53 and r2 was 0.73, so...
