I use them and you can still break a conductor in a screw terminal or have some badly installed socket where the installer has made a right pigs ear and left not much slack on cable, not long ago i had a socket change when i unscrewed the socket (hard to get screwdriver to terminals due to cable very short) the **** had snapped a screw head so had to cut socket out and no room to get crimp tool in so the helacons came in very handy ! if your a qualified spark and know what your doing and your work conforms to regs and its neat jobs a gooden !
 
They are standard Wago 3 pole 41A connectors mounted in a special DIN Rail carrier. 30p each, cheap as chips :ihih:

That's what i was meaning, they are mounted in a made for purpose carrier. They are not left hanging free on the conductors they are connecting was my point. ...lol!!! Nothing wrong in that carrier set-up at all. Problem comes when you have many or all of the existing cables to extend, in most cases they'll be no room on the CU DIN rail to mount them in these carriers...
 
I dont mean to sound pedantic but I believe you will find that's in fact cheaper than chips. Here to help.David.I have had no problems with either push fit halicons or wagos.

From one pedant to another... Your 'dont' is missing an apostrophe :nono:


:tongue3:
 
ive seen more push in connectors burnt out than i have connector block connections and most of those through over loading. i just think they are up for the loads that they are required to carry . just my opinion
