Extending SWA garage cable

[Luka]

Use 6181Y a wholesaler will sell cut lengths including a cpc.

I can get 1m of 3 Core HO7RNF and it is a bit tight behind the board so Id rather have one piece of cable and split it only at both ends. Thanks anyway for the advice

You will then need ferrules and a crimper.

Don’t you mean the RIGHT ferrules with the RIGHT crimper?

Do I have to use crimps? Can't I just use a terminal strips included in 57A JB and wire it as on the picture below?

Ferrules are used on multi strand conductors prior to termination to protect them.

Thanks, it worked well, but I have a problem. It turns out that the neutral terminal slots are too small for 10mm2 cable (it's an old CU). Can I run 6mm2 instead of 10mm2 from CU to junction box if I feed it from 30A MCB instead if 40A?
