Discuss A good example why not to use a Twist connector! in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net
For the record, this was not discovered in the UK.
It was found on a military camp which is supposed to be British Standard!
#Ideal industries have recently re-introduced them over here via neweys.
Needless to say, they didn't last long!
Awful bloody things!
well for a start...recently at the show in manchester i had folk pushing these things under my nose...i was suspicious about em then...still am..that didn`t stop me grabbing a large fistful though and..I've noticed a couple of companies are doing some fairly aggressive marketing for these thing recently. I assumed they'd made some improvements to the design....maybe not. They're pretty common in appliances manufactured in the US, I've got no idea why the Yanks love them so much.
this is it...they looked alrite when i had a go with em at the elex show in manchester....my only concern here with em though is differing tempretures causin em to work loose over time....tin hat on.i like them,only used the twister pro ones(are they designed to match your c&k gear,probaby a ploy) i like wago and chock block and crimps,no matter what you use its only as good as the spark connecting it up,

yep but wago`s n hellemans will accomodate tempreture difference....a lot of these connectors coming onto the market will clearly struggle with it...you only have to look at some of em...fair point,on any connector i suppose,but still better than choc block,
well i cant see it Lenny...after all the jury is still out on wago`s isn`t it and they are clearly better than this....I wonder if they've acheived BSEN or ISO conformity yet. Last time I inquired, they hadn't.
