Hello All
Inaccessable jb's has been cover by the regs but.......
According to the new ammendment all concealed jointboxes have to marked MF for "maintainance free". (designed to be placed in inaccessable buildings voids, i.e underfloors etc).
From what i am lead to understand, they are the push to terminate style and therefore no longer using a brass terminal screw.
Does anyone agree this is a fire hazzard? as i have come accross more of this style within luminaires that have burnt out compared with the odd burnt out terminal screw variant.
This also brings me to the thoughts of the old twist on cap, which i believe was banned for such bad connections but have now made minimal standards to be sitting on the shelves once again. - Twister PRO Twister PRO - Wire Connectors - IDEAL INDUSTRIES
Anyway, my rant of the day regarding the regs is over.
