Trying to extend the 2 output wires safely(around 2 metres),i don't have much previous experiences with electrical appliances but I Did some research and I need a wago connector block possibly 2

Which rated blocks are suited ? I don't know if the 36a gets split in half on the outputs

The job is a simple one , but I want to make sure everything is matched correctly

Thank you for your time

Highest Regards ,Lee.
 
This driver produces 36V at up to a little over 4A - any Wago connectors that are suitable for the stranded cable will do (lever type). The connections ought to be enclosed e.g. in a Wagobox.

And you need a separate Wago for each of the 2 wires - join the output wires together in one Wago and it will likely either shut down or blow up.
 
You could use two Wago 221 in-line splicing connectors, which as said above are suitable for stranded wire, and use 1mm or 1.5mm csa flex to extend for just a couple of metres.
Edit - maybe actually four Wago's will needed, two at the Meanwell end and two at the lighting end!
