    Hager J803

    It says on the manufacturers website that you can connect 4 cables using the J803. In the lid it says you can put two, 1mm2 wires per hole. Does this mean you can connect up to 8, 1mm2 cables? Also do you have to turn the cable grip around if you are only securing one cable by the grip?

    How to use a junction box

    Not!!! Found this on a recent eicr, it was feeding a couple of outside lights, there was a lid on it so I presumed it was being used in the usual way, the training centres must be so proud.

    Under floorboard JBs

    Been asked to install some smoke alarms - all to interconnect wirelessly, over 4 floors. Have put in the cable as the landings and stairwell were going to be carpeted, and routed the cable to a nearby JB (in a room without carpet at the moment). JBs under floorboards have a number of wires...
