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?

    My favourite is on a ring socket where the two cpcs have been twisted together all the way back to where the sheaths enter the back box. So you can't even cut back and start afresh. On the plus side it ensures good continuity!
