chocbox

[tank]

hello all, you know how chocboxes are called lighting chocboxes, is there anything wrong in using them with 30 amp connector block to extend a ring final inside some dado trunking?

 

[telectrix]

use crimps

 

[Amp David]

In trunking then not really any need for the box. As above through crimps are crying out to be used here.

if its in dado trunking replace the legs or pull new ones in dosnt take long proper job then

oh dear, i'm sure this has been done to death, but the trunking had t+e solid conductor cable in that i didn't think could be crimped. am i wrong? is there a definitive answer to this?

also, i agree, ideally replace the legs, but they disappeared up into oblivion after the ceiling was finished and would have been impractical to replace.

crimps are OK on solid cable as long as you use a decent crimp tool that compresses the cable and give the cables a tug, make sure they;re secure

Well after all the reading this discussion I can suggest you about the crimps. When I faced to this problem then I used crimps and now get rid from that.
