Discuss Just a wee take on wiring power circuits and alarm circuits in a garage in the UK Electrical Forum area at ElectriciansForums.net

Wow, I just learnt something new! I have looked at those clips at the wholesalers and wondered whatever do you do with them. Now I know, yaaay! Looks very good.
 
I just had to Google what everyone was talking about. They look like really nice clips.
 
I agree, I first used them getting FP200 into a basement and couldn’t believe how quick they were. The double ones keep things very neat. Since then I keep a bag of them in stock.
As above a pair of pincers saves the fingers a bit and I just used a bit of bike inner tube stretched over the hammer.
D-line adjustable clips for round cables are another great product, so much neater than SWA cleats.
Has anyone tried the D-Line stag clips?
 
Ah the D-Line clips are great too, I use them a lot with 20mm plastic conduit, with the plugless screws they are very quick to install and more importantly in my line of work (agricultural) no silly saddle screws to drop in the sh it never to be seen again!
 
I'm going to try those D-Line clips! They look very easy, and, indeed, no stupid little saddle-screws to drop and lose forever!
Clearly, they can be undone without a tool, so maybe not so secure, but in a low-risk environment that may be a bonus.
I sometimes use all-round band too, which is cheap and quick, but not so pretty!
 
I costed the garage job using P-clips with supplementary metal ones...a fiver in it, so not really a financial disaster, especially as it was much faster using the Linian clips.

There's no need for supplementary metal clips when using P clips, they are made of copper under the plastic coating.
