Good evening everybody. I have a cooker feed from the CU that is then split under the floor above the kitchen to separate outlets for the hob & Oven. The problem is a standard 30A JB does not have big enough terminals to accommodate the wires. The person who installed this has cut some of the strands and one of the terminals appears cross threaded in the attempt. I am just about to close the floor permanently with wretched laminate and am not happy to leave this as is under the floor, any suggestions how to improve it ?

I don't know why I bother with this site. It seems to have a fairly large contingent of conceited individuals intent on handing out insults that completely destroy the efforts of the few nice helpful people. Please delete my membership.
