Wagos in a 2G socket backbox....

Former Community Member
Former Community Member
I'm running through the options with regards to terminating a 4mm2 ring when it comes to the sockets. For some of the 2G sockets there is plenty of space to easily / reliably terminate the 4mm2 cable, in others not so much.


What would be a whole lot easier (there is plenty of space as I fitted 35mm back boxes) would be to loop in and out via a couple of wago 221 3-way connectors using the 3rd way as a spur to the socket, allowing just a single cable needing to be clamped down at the socket terminal itself.


I'm sure I won't have been the first to have thought of this.


Thoughts please? The only limitation I can see is that I would'nt be able to spur off the socket (but could of course just use a wago with more ways).


It has been a long week and I just wanted to sense check this........


Thanks in advance

    You can get fittings with large enough terminals, but maybe not in the decorative finish the customer wants.
