And I see there's plenty of room for a fixing screw to snag a live cable... What sort of screw are you using? A nice silver countersunk would look great on the front of that.

Assuming there's not a hidden bracket for this fitting

All these fittings nowadays even the major lighting brands seem to only have enough room for a 0.75 flex

Just making a point really - it was a squeeze and a bit unnecessary imho. And working off steps in the cold it was a lot easier to only have to push in the solid cores.
Heat covers were only on 3 wires and theres no way these things will get remotely warm so I reckon they were OTT. The PIRs are probably bought in items by LAP and come with them in case they're shoved in next to a 1000W halogen lamp!

maybe I'm nit picking the people designing them light fitting put those heat covers on for reason
why don't you send the company that make them a letter tell the designer the fitting are c77P.and they will give you the answer.
 
One problem I see is the new set up isn't designed to take three conductors in the push side (neutral)
 
As far as I am aware those Wago connectors that have been used in your modification are only designed for 1 flex cable whereas you have inserted 3.

You seemed to have fixed a problem that didn't exist and in doing so created a few new problems.
