Not deemed a suitable luminaire coupler according to 7671 either

Install them well and properly and the cables won't move. Plenty just can't do it.....from what I find.I agree that the 20 amp junction boxes are accessible. However they have no cable restraint and are meant to be fixed in place.
With respect. Have a gander at some I did forty odd years back.....not the slightest problem and never had any.Have a gander at Reg 559.5.1 to see what are correct luminaire couplers.
I needed to join a cooker circuit today, due to moving a consumer unit. I used a Wago IP68 box, which is rated up to 41A (with appropriate connectors).

I put two glands for T&E in one of the flat sides. The box is somewhat overkill for where it was going (bungalow loft) but was fairly quick to fit.
Screwfix sell them, see: https://www.NoLinkingToThis/p/wagobox-ip68-junction-box/7553R
60A Click coffin would have been good for that job

Got any photos? Not a product I know but the name rings a bell.Really miss the Line eggs. I still have a couple rattling about somewhere.
Wago do 6mm connectors but I dont think 2x 6mm cables will fit into a wagobox. Crimp or solder connections.
