M.K. Light Switches.

Zoomup
I have just been fitting some customer bought M.K. sockets and light switches; white Logic style.


I do not like the captive screws as they are initially very difficult to turn and you never quite know when they are fully tightened. I also do not like the very shallow light switch terminals that allow wires to come out, especially if twisted together. I ended up using a battery screwdriver to tighten the screws as my hands were starting to hurt.


Others' views please?

    definitely wouldn’t be twisting cables together though, or using battery tools to tighten terminals. 


    A  battery operated driver with a clutch is fine for tightening screws. They are used in factory production lines all over the world.
