Downlighter junction boxs help

[mars6394]

Hi all i have a little job to do concerning 50 downlighters to connect just wondering what type of joint boxs you other sparkys use i am at the moment using normal small jb boxs which can be pulled down through the downlighter ceiling hole to gain access to.

is there any easier connection method for this practice ie any other type of junction box.or connection unit that can be used to just speed the job up and nothing too expensive

hi tuckermot i have used those waggobox;s before i totally forgot about those i think i shall use those now instead thanks alot mate

 

[mars6394]

also is there any ruling using the old style jb box regarding 17th edition regs regarding the jb after being connect using screws and then pushed back in to the downlighter hole and the jb not being fixed

 

[telectrix]

JB should be fixed, strictly speaking. check out " line connectors". offer on on forum at present. they will accept wagos, choc blocks, etc. and are quick and easy.

Just remember to leave enough give from the JB to the downlighter to pull down to maintain.
