What size/type terminal/junction box

[den9112]

Hi, i want to replace a bathroom light with one the fits direct on the cieling, in order to this i have to remove the cieling rose box and position it above the cieling in the loft . I have everything removed and ready to re-wire but if i re wire the box i cannot cover the top and the wires are exposed . This i dont want to do , and i would like to know what junction /terminal box will be sufficient for the job. Thanks

a 4-terminal 20A JB will do the job - easier to wire than a 6A jobbie. Also there is a purpose made JB available for lighting from Hager:

Choc-boxes are great for awkward lighting junctions in ceilings. You make the terminal connections first, then slide the choc box over the top.
