[QUOTE="HammerMan, post: 343342, member: 23601"] Hi all, Before I start I'm guessing this has been talked about over and over again and I have read several threads about this, some quite old, so apologys but wanted to get a more updated view. I would like to know the best (safest and i guess meets regs) method to move sockets where extending the cable is the only option and being able to bury the connection in the plaster board / wall and plaster over, never to be accessed again.... hopefully! I have read all about WAGO connectors in WAGO box, are these classed as MF yet? and how do you bury such a big box in plaster? I have also seen the LINE products with the LINE enclosures which look smaller to bury in plaster board and are MF are these best to use? I have also seen the Ashly JB MF boxes, I guess these are not as deep as the WAGO box at 30mm and can be buried in the wall and then plastered over bit easier? Or is simply crimping using a Racheting Crimper the best method, and would these need to be in a box in the wall or can you simply crimp, heat shrink and place into the chased out section of the plaster board and plaster straight over the top? - but should you crimp solid core copper? I have heard both yes and "you would be stupid to" cheers guys [/QUOTE]
