Hi - Can anybody give me some advice please? - I want to Change my CU to a Split load RCD unit as the current CU is only 4 way - and I want to add a Shower Circuit. I know that the cables inside the current CU will be too short - what is an acceptable way to increase the Length of the conductors - I was told that Connector blocks are ok with BS7671 - but I would prefer to use crimps - any ideas?? -
Just read numerous previous posts on Crimping, Jbs etc, - must point out that the all the wires come in from the back of the CU, positioned at ceiling level - so jbs are no good - So to revise my question - Should i use Crimps or Choc blocs?? also - just to throw this in - Does the colour of the crimp - affect BS7671 - Correct identification / colour of conductors?? if so do i then need to use insulation tape.. I await your answers with baited breath.......
