junction box help

[baza890]

can u connect a 1.5mm with a 1.0mm in a jb i assume u can but it is bigger which is making these connections alot harder and fidgety. is it better to get a maintenance free junction box from screwfix and can all the wires fit into the jb, its four wires 1.0mm or 3 wires 1mm and one 1.5m?

(and no i didnt wire i just brought them down from the joists) and if someone can can you link the JB from screwfix if not all good

You have been told on your other thread to use maintenance free as this is likely to be inaccessible.

true, what i should have asked was if 4 wires fit into a jb i thought it would be too much since its 1mm and 1.5

No problem with one designed for four cables!
Available from many outlets, but not Screwfix for some reason!
There are other options, but I've used these successfully.
