Anyone used the Wago connectors?? Look really usful found this demo

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xOZDLhRyE9c]YouTube - Wagobox Electrical Junction Box[/ame]

Let me know what you think!!
 
my wago delivery turned up today im over the moon!!! so much easier!! cant wait till i use them on a job and compare time scales to choc block
 
Been said a million times before but the time you save and ease of use more than makes up for the price

Its a thumbs up from me and a thumbs up from him
 
Been using them a while, and pretty good, but not too keen on size/shape of box, and think breaking them apart for testing is a bit of a chew on.
 
Just bought the contractors box with a full selection of connectors and 24 wagoboxes for about £120 inc postage (which was a bit high I thought). They are a super piece of kit and save so much time when doing downlights. Everyone should try them.
 
we have all been warned - no more noughty words on this site!
so from now on the word - can.t bring myself to say it ( J.B. ) is banned!!
 
Lads, I am doing a job at the minute that is wired in conduit and singles above a plasterboard ceiling, changing to flex as it comes thru the ceiling (not my design, so dont all slate me;)). Could I fit three 2 pole lever connectors into a conduit thru box? Most of the connections will be in an adaptable box, but there may be some instances where I have to use the thru box method. Also, could I drill a 20mm hole in a Wago box to accept a kopex gland/bush and coupler?

I know the regs about concealed J.B's etc, this is not a problem. The thing I am slightly worried about is a lot of connections using screw connectors, the wago's look like a good idea.
 
Been using the 2 and 3 lever Wago's for a while now along with the lighting connectors, absolutely invaluable! Ordered my free sample from Wago direct (been getting previous from cef) and the sample was here the next day! Just putting my order together for a load more gear, really tidies up a job and saves loads of time.
 
got my free sample today its just what ive been looking for ....ive been useing the helacon connectors and was finding it hard to find a enclosure the right size for them the wagobox ticks all the boxes plus the fact you can get 40a connectors for extending rings or spurs is a bonus

Seems like a lot of faff, with needing the special carrier, but good to have the option.

Absolutely correct they hold water, shrouds are totally unnecessary. 20s is 24mm spanner, 20 large is 30mm spanner.
