Replacing fluorescent light

[simondyntDBeK]

I want to swap out an old 2ft fluorescent tube lamp in a wardrobe for a modern LED light (https://www.screwfix.com/p/reeve-twin-2ft-led-batten-18w-1650lm-220-240v/960pp)

The new light has a cable attached with just two wires.

Am I ok just buying something like this (https://www.screwfix.com/p/debox-24a-in-line-junction-box-white/8692h) to join the new light with what I think is the ring main?

Thanks!

If the junction box is accessible ,you can use either.
Is it wired into a lighting circuit ,or a power circuit ?

The cables should be restrained where they enter, that's not possible with the round box unless you clip the cables.
The Debox I think has some sort of restraint built into it

Just noticed in your picture you also have a loop feed, therefore you need 4 connections, the Debox only has 3 connections.
If you have space then a Hager J804 may be an option.

Thanks that does look a better option.

I did this today using a round junction box and it doesn’t feel great. Sure it won’t kill anyone but will change it at some point
