Hello first post
I live in a 3 year old house which was wired by an nic company.
not under builders warranty anymore
In the kitchen they have installed lv downlighters in the ceiling(6)
recently took them down to decorate and noticed that the mains wiring into the transformers was connected with 15a connector block, strip of 2 for each transformer, with the earths twisted round the cables and no insulation or box.
I dont think this is right ;should I
a) wrap some insulating tape round
b) put some sort of joint box round
The 12v side is installed in the same method.
What is the preferred method of doing this?
i also want to install some mains halogen lights elsewhere do i have to use heat resistant flex for the connection to the lights.
Thanks in advance
