Hey.

These wago's are like marmite, you either love em or hate em, personally I'm a hater. Have had issues with them in the past. Theres another thread on these somewhere I'll see if I can dig it out.

I've heard they are maintenance free and can be used instead of crimps

i first used these connectors in 1999 in the netherlands, i think they are great, quick and easy to use.
Although last year on a project norway i saw a joint box had caught fire and competely melted above a suspended ceiling where these connectors were used.I concluded whoever fitted them had not pushed them fully on and therefore were very loose causing the fire so this product is good to use if it is used correctly.
