Wish to install a T4 strip light under a kitchen unit connected to the mains and operated by an existing light switch (essentially, I am extending an existing circuit). I cannot connect the mains cable directly to the light; instead, the light has a short length of flex to which I need to connect the cable. What is the accepted way of doing this ? The circuit is protected by a 6A MCB and the flex is 0.75mm2 so I see no need to use a fused spur. Can I simply use a connector strip inside a choc-box ?

I normally use a 50mm white junction box attatched to the underside of the kitchen cabinets, just to keep it looking neat and tidy.
