Yeah Or might throw a couple in free when I sell my red black cable stockTake them to the local clay pigeon shoot.
As most of the cables are Red & Black T&E I would not think this JB has been put in recently so the reference to "these days" is probably not appropriate.
I could sell them some old JBs and drums of old red black cable and they could go full on sympathetic 'to the period'You think the replacement should be 'period' appropriate?
I can't think of what else he means. ?You think the replacement should be 'period' appropriate?
Should I take out the RCBO's and replace with re-wirable fuse's.You think the replacement should be 'period' appropriate?

Whats wrong with screw terminals, they have been around for decades.I can't think why someone would use a screw terminal JB these days, when it's far quicker to wago type and make it maintenance free, whether needed to be or not.

Just for info I was altering some wiring last year for a friend, wagos in the back of a switch for the N not much slack so instead of cutting the wago off (push in type) I pulled the conductor out and it didnt take much to pull out, just thought id share that.
I've nothing against them, it's more to do with ease and also being maintenance free.Whats wrong with screw terminals, they have been around for decades.

They are only MF if used with the enclosureI've nothing against them, it's more to do with ease and also being maintenance free.
Would you use them without ?They are only MF if used with the enclosure
Nope just stating the wago itself is not MFWould you use them without ?

NothingWhy would you cut it off when you can just remove the conductors from it?
A pull with a bit of a twist is the method for removing the conductors.
What are you actually trying to get at here?
I don't see what the difference is, if using another make of box. I use Wiska boxes with them and can't see a problem.Would you use them without ?
My question was in using them without an enclosure at all.I don't see what the difference is, if using another make of box. I use Wiska boxes with them and can't see a problem.
Damn sight worse than an Ashley 301 or 401.Seen plnety Wagos just thrown under floors and in voids without a box of any kind
Damn sight worse than an Ashley 301 or 401.
Things never change.......but more people may be qualified to do it, these days.It's to be expected. The same people who routinely left loose connector blocks in their wake, now have a faster and easier way of leaving a mess.
I would rather be experienced than qualified.
....and that's my point, too......why keep reiterating?Nothing wrong with them if they are correctly fitted, but a lot aren't.

You replied, "Damn sight worse than an Ashley 301 or 401." meaning that the wago's that are being used without enclosures are worse than a 301 or 401.Seen plnety Wagos just thrown under floors and in voids without a box of any kind
Agreed, but I think that's a bit obvious, don't you.You replied, "Damn sight worse than an Ashley 301 or 401." meaning that the wago's that are being used without enclosures are worse than a 301 or 401.
My reply to that was Only if the 301 etc is fitted properly.
