LINE launch the BS5733 maintenance free (MF) kit for Junction Boxes

[Dan]

Dear Forum Member,



LINE is pleased to announce the launch the BS5733 maintenance free (MF) kit for our junction box.

The kit is available in a 3 pole (12 port) 32A or 4 pole (16 port) 20A option. The kit will include a MF connector, a specially labeled cable tie and instructions to be used with the standard LINE K97 enclosure. We hope to be adding additional connectors to the MF range in the near future.

I am sure that you will agree that the LINE MF is the easiest to use most versatile MF Junction box available!

The kits are now available exclusively to forum members through our forum shop. For access to the shop please click on the picture, FORUMSHOP or enter through our banners on the forum.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank all those who offered suggestions during the development phase. If you have suggestions for new products or improvements to other products please get in touch.

Thanks for your ongoing support.

Regards

Farrel
aka "LineProducts"

What happens if you lose the cable grip screw out of a ashley/hager MF junction box

Errr put another screw in it?

Seriously though, I've used wago/hellerman but made up enclosures for them as I hate the wagobox with a vengence, the ashley connectors are seriously good. I haven't used these "Black egg thingies" yet but reading through this thread they are sounding like a good alternative and certainly worth a try.

Although . . . . . not being a fix and forget (unless it's crimped/soldered/filled with resin or something) type person, I would still want to be able to get to these joints, just in case.

Do's the EARTH that is in with LIVE go to the light or the switch????

Neither. the cable stops about 4 inches from the enclosure so it doesn't go anywhere. I've already been pulled up on that one but it was just supposed to be an example of what they look like, not an example of my competence. Honest!

Just a thought but you don't need to cut cable ties to remove them, a small screwdriver under the locking bit releases them fine so as long as the tie hasn't been cut short it can be reused no problem.

arrghhh...missing the point

who? me?

I was just pointing out that you can reuse the MF cable tie if you need to as it was being suggested this was a problem. Or have I missed something else?

free delivery if you order more than £25 of line products.

On the forumshop it's free if LINE items are over £20 otherwise £4.95.

I am trying to keep the forum prices as low as possible. Without this charge on small orders, packaging, labour, post costs etc would take me into the red.

Personally, I think free p&p on orders over £20 is very generous.

Hi I too have converted to line junction box's and acessories Farrel is genius try them first you will be impressed with ease of use and also when you have done 2 or 3 speed great products. Me and a colleague went head to head on connecting : feed in 2 feeds out (lighting or precisely 1.0 t&e) switch to bathroom lights i.e switch wire, also 3 core fan total including cpc's 16 wires my colleague was using conventional brown JB, I used Line products, my colleague took 2.5 times longer, my product costs where a little bigger, BUT much worth the extra cost for the time saved. TRY THEM

Just a thought, if these are so good could i join a 10mm G/Y with them (if i was short of cable) to water and gas service??

Should be interesting!

 

[Guitarist]

4mm max

[telectrix]

you could always use a crimp inside a line enclosure. even better don't cut the cable short.LOL

Yes, definitely old enough Tony, one of the dinosaurs on this site!
