Should these be always housed in a wago cable retaining box if under plaster board?

There is no "MF" mark on wago boxes though?Hi Harry - if you need a maintenance free jb then yes the MF marked Wagobox must be used along with connectors from either their 222 or 773 range. I also use the Ashley J803 which comes in one unit for a fiver. Hope that helps
Ahh, there is if you look closeThere is no "MF" mark on wago boxes though?
I quite like Wagoboxes; use a lot of them. But I do agree that they'd be so much better without the internal dividers that lock the Wagos in place. They make it harder to fit and risk stressing the connection.But seriously, I don't like having the terminals inline with the cable entries - any movement of the cable in the clamp can put tension on the terminals - and there's no option to leave slack for retermination.
I see absolutely no reason why you can't put them in any suitable enclosure. It is a nonsense to suggest they are only MF if installed in one of those flimsy Wago boxes.
No doubting the common sense of this.I see absolutely no reason why you can't put them in any suitable enclosure. It is a nonsense to suggest they are only MF if installed in one of those flimsy Wago boxes.
Heretic! You sound like one of those people who say "Never tried guinness 'cos I don't like it"Awful things those Wago boxes
