wago's

[i=p/u]

when using wago's for downlight guys many cables can actualy fit in the wagobox?

also a guy i worked with said you should loop the ciruit , but what stops you from going all directions, if have lots of lights??/?

After some trial and much error I've settled on Wago connectors with the IP20 Q12 junction boxes you can get from Toolstation - and sometimes the LINE junction boxes when the cables in and out can't easily be clipped - for downlights, etc.

I've pretty much given up on Wago boxes - they're far to cramped, or maybe I just lack the dexterity.... I'm convinced there's a design tolerance problem with the newer smaller 'Light' Wago boxes as I struggled to get the lid closed every time - even on just a couple of 1.0mm2 cables.

Same. But I make it even simplier without JB's. On new work, neutral looped in switch then loop in and out into i-cage lights - they have room for 2 x 1.5 T&E

well thats what i plan todo, just use the wago junction box to take l-n-e too, then loop the lights, will 2 x 1.5 heat resistant flex fit in these connection built onto lights????

I think that would be tight where the clamps are as the top is screwless so its tight. See page 8 http://www.icage.co.uk/files/iCage%20Catalogue.pdf

Are you talking about the new WAGOLITE box or the standard WAGOBOX?
I assume you are talking about having a "spider" lighting circuit as opposed to a radial?

whats the difference both radials protected by a 6amp mcb
