    Joining wiring within trunking - crimp or solder?

    It is, but I don't think it would pull back - some of these lengths run 20m from the original sockets through all kinds of twists and corners. I don't think it would be possible to access the trunking to replace it either.

    Joining wiring within trunking - crimp or solder?

    Because the existing sockets are further along the trunking, I was looking to split out of the cable on the way to the original socket. Not all of them are accessible either - some of them run from the trunking into plaster etc.

    It's adding sockets onto a dimmer lighting system, yeah - basically we have sockets attached to triac dimmers, but the sockets are positioned in ridiculous places (adjoining rooms, etc), but the trunking carrying the cable runs right past where we need them. A three-pole push connector looks...

(The reason for this unusal setup is because they're dimmed lighting sockets). This means I'm going to need to join...

    Joining wiring within trunking - crimp or solder?

    That's perfect - thanks! I got 100 M20 'Brass bushes' with back nuts off ebay for £12 all in. Unfortunately they're the long ones so they'll stick into the trunking a bit but beggars can't be choosers. I have a 20mm punch as well so no easy to cut holes too. Thanks very much
