Thank you for the replies, I am going to look for a resin T joint.
Could I just fill wiska box’s with resin? And use wago connectors. As there will be 2 x SWA’s and flex
Thanks again
There would be problems with using a wiska box in this way.
-The SWA gland which forms and essential part of the earth connection is outside the box and so does not get encapsulated in the resin, in a proper underground joint this connection is made by a different method and is contained within the joint.
-you would need to purchase addition parts to make the earthing connection to the SWA.
-you would need to work out how much resin is required and purchase it separately.
-wiska boxes are the wrong shape to get a proper resin fill without getting voids/air bubbles in the resin, proper underground joints have a smooth round shape and a few taps with the handle of a screwdriver is normally enough to encourage all the air bubbles up to the surface.
That's not resin, that's gel, as per its name.
