wago

HI, I have a wall light in the living room with a integrated switch. Think of something like a lamp to give you idea. It is connected to a 3 core (live neutral earth). The cable is fed to the wall light through a conduit which i can see when i pull the floorboard in the floor above. I'm...

I’m putting in a weatherproof electrical box to power the following: 2x HikVision CCTV IP cameras 1x HikVision 4 port PoE network switch 1x TP-Link WiFi bridge There is a very long set of LED lights going around the car park linking back to the Consumer Unit I was hoping to take a spur off...

Hi All, Another question re the light fitting in the photo. I have wago connectors, but I just want to make sure i wire it up correctly. i only have the 3 terminal wagos, does that matter if only use 2 of the slots? Either way some advise on how to wire this to a downlight would be ideal! As...

Hi All, I am renovating my terrace house which I moved in last year. I have successfully tracked and traced the ring main around the house by pulling floorboards and USB camera endoscope for phones into areas I cannot reach. Terrace houses are soooo long. Now I have found 4x Heavy Duty Brown...

Hi All, Please see photo of current wiring in place for a hallway light fitting. I’m not a sparky but is that the right setup, neutral connector to live? Either way i’m looking to change it for a LED downlight and have various Wago connectors. please advise best practice to wire this...

Hi all, Could some tell me if its feasible to install downlights using the method ive attempted to draw up. i know I could daisy chain eliminating how many lights are connected at a single point, However, i was wondering ether i could use the WAGO wiring centre and run each light direct to...

May be basic questions but to anyone who has experience using wago connectors... 1) If i buy the 5 way wago 221 connector, do all ports have to be used up or can I just use 2? (I plan to buy only a pack of 5 ways as it works out cheapest) 2) I have a terminal block connecting up 6 earths so...

Hi everyone, I have lowered a socket in my garage by around 3x feet. I have extended the cable by using Wago connectors inside an empty socket backbox. This has been covered with a blank plate and remains accessible. Does this sound ok or are there any issues I should be aware of…just a second...

Our house was fully rewired a few months back, all fine and dandy. The plasterer coming to do a room next week wants the face plates taking off all sockets and switches. Is that as straightforward as it sounds? Should I be using wago things to keep the wires organised while the fronts are off...

Hi, I want to convert a single socket to a double socket, and want to do it with a one-to-two gang adapter back box for now. The problem with this is that the wires to the back of the socket are too short to reach as they stand. Now I know that the obvious answer is to dig out a hole big enough...

Hello, I'm new here so i’m hoping this isn’t a stupid question! I’m wanting to move my 2g socket from the skirting board up to the wall but the wires are too short. I’m unsure if there’s any issues with using a wago box and connectors to extend the wires because it’s on a ring circuit, I’m not...

Looking for some advice, sorry if this has already been posted previously! I have a 2G socket to replace the only issue I have is the wiring in the back box is to short, previously I would use terminal strips and extend but I have seen the Wago products and they look a lot safer. My question...

Hi all, I'd be grateful for some advice on how to wire in some new GU10 fittings. I bought these fire rated Minisun ones: https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B00GSPFK2O/ref=pe_3187911_185740111_TE_item I will be removing the existing GU5.3 (MR16) fittings before starting. These fittings have a...
