Swapping pendants for recessed GU10 in hallway

Hi
...if swapping them is OK I'd be getting rid of the roses and wiring it as Fig 1B in a choc box.

You can't use bits of choc block above the ceiling. Use a junction box.

He already said he'd be using a choc box.

Which is why I said he can't do it and that he should use a junction box.

Why can't he use a choc box?

What is a choc box? The implication and photo suggested he was going to use connection blocks bare in the ceiling.

Sounds to me like he's going to use connector blocks, in a choc box

If you don't know, then why did you say he couldn't use one?
