Is this JB adequate for the design and use.

They are only MF if used with the enclosure

Would you use them without ?

Nope just stating the wago itself is not MF

 

[davesparks]

instead of cutting the wago off (push in type) I pulled the conductor out and it didnt take much to pull out, just thought id share that.

Why would you cut it off when you can just remove the conductors from it?

A pull with a bit of a twist is the method for removing the conductors.

What are you actually trying to get at here?

Nothing

I don't see what the difference is, if using another make of box. I use Wiska boxes with them and can't see a problem.

My question was in using them without an enclosure at all.

Also, I think the enclosure would have to be stamped MF if used as BS 5733 Maintenance Free box.

Damn sight worse than an Ashley 301 or 401.

It's to be expected. The same people who routinely left loose connector blocks in their wake, now have a faster and easier way of leaving a mess.

Things never change.......but more people may be qualified to do it, these days.

Nothing wrong with them if they are correctly fitted, but a lot aren't.

I would rather be experienced than qualified.

That's my point. What do quals count for these days?

....and that's my point, too......why keep reiterating?

You replied, "Damn sight worse than an Ashley 301 or 401." meaning that the wago's that are being used without enclosures are worse than a 301 or 401.

My reply to that was Only if the 301 etc is fitted properly.

Agreed, but I think that's a bit obvious, don't you.

Obviously not to some, as there are still probably 100s fitted incorrectly.
