I went luminaire shopping with my Missus yesterday and bought a few lights for the living room, dining room and hall. Changing them all over today and every single light had it's loop in a connector block taped to the wiring in the void above.


Wago box, wago connectors and a 64mm dry lining box to fix the lights to. Always done this and it makes future light changing an absolute doddle!

I and others use the slightly smaller Click Flow 102C connector, and I ain't providing no missing link!
 
Usually, the metal back box is earthed via the screws in contact with the earthed metal eyelid screw holes of a socket.In this situation, a plastic blank plate is fitted therefore there is no earthing of the back box via the screws and needs an earth fly lead.
 
Navy solution...
if it moves, grease it
if it doesn't, paint it
and everything else...earth it

has anyone else noticed the high level of sediment in Tesco's Duoro?
(Tried to upload a pic, but "an error occurred"...doh!)
