Wasn't there a song about that?

Yeah, it got to number 1 in the Kit parade....

Hi all,
I am a BIG fan of the Wago connectors, but am I required to enclose them in a box? They seem to me, to be very well insulated in themselves....

Always should be in a box with the cables clamped where they enter the box so no coloured wires are seen when the box is closed

It may be, although the tech is still correct. It’s an odd thing that we on here encourage new members to use the search function but then take the mick out of resurrecting old threads…… it’s a bit like me trying to negotiate with my OH - damned if I do, damned if I don’t……

I wouldn't say that @DPG post is taking the mick. Rather reminding the new member to look at the date of the post. That was my take on it.

Are WAGOs 10 year old already?

To some sparks, they’re still the gimmicky new fad

A simple fix; add a forum mod that locks threads after a period of inactivity, I'm sure @Dan could cobble something together

Absolutely. It's just best for people to be aware that the person who's question they are answering may not have been on the forum for years. Wasn't taking the mick, and apologies if it came across like that to anyone.

I wasn't thinking that anyone was taking the mickey, it was just an observation. For example, anyone doing a search for 'Chinese' or 'China' is likely to find all the very qualified posts of the late Eng2, though they will now be years old it won't make the answers any the less irrelevant.
