    bury cable joints in masonry wall?

    are we allowed to? what do the regs say in regards to this? maintenance free joint (so crimp or even a wago?) and would the joint then have to be in an ip box? or can we just slap half a roll of tape round it? all of this before the plaster bonding is applied?

    Another quiet day today so a bit of retail therapy was in order - this time on a bootlace ferrule crimper. Here he is with his first 6mm crimp. I'm hoping he'll settle into the toolbox in the next few days 'cause he seems a bit stroppy tonight. Maybe it's just me ...

    Correct way to crimp a 25mm copper tube terminal with an indent crimp?

    I am about to connect up my 12V battery to my inverter (at last!) and I need to crimp some copper tube terminals on to the end of the cable. I have purchased an indent crimper for these tube terminals but I notice it is different to my crimping tool for insulated crimps. The stem of tube...

    waterproof crimp spade connectors with IP56 rating?

    Hi, I don't manage to find crimp connectors (spade, bullet, etc) with a stated IP rating. Do they exist, and if yes where do you find them? I'm thinking of using IP56 spade connectors for a tunnel light on a narrow boat.

    Crimp terminals: current rating is rarely specified?

    I have looked for current rating for crimp terminals. I've checked some 5-10 suppliers, none of them say what the current rating for any of their terminals are. I'm guessing they're meant to be able to handle the capacity of the maximum size cables that can fit into them? I'd prefer to know...
