5A Junction box

JDW

Are 5amp junction boxes acceptable on a 6amp lighting circuit?

I personally wouldn’t use them as they are too small, but if they are already fitted are they acceptable?

    Still is common at the shallow end of the market, cheap kitchen re-fits and that sort of thing - it never was good practice, though as it will often work for years it all depends on how keen you are to safe a few quid but not quite meet the spirit of the regs.
