MK LOGIC RAPID FIX

AJJewsbury

Anyone tried the new MK sockets with lever terminals?

Obvious failing to my eyes is only 3 PE terminals - if you're spurring off from a ring and prefer to have a fly-lead to the back box then you're going to need 4. (OK you could loop one of the c.p.c.s through the back box terminal if you're using reduced size c.p.c.s. (e.g. T&E) - but it's a bit messy and probably isn't going to work with full sized c.p.c.s. as most many back box terminals won't take more than one larger conductor).

    On the “thumbs up” side, a few people have said to me they struggle with the screw terminals on this particular range, so this might be an improvement for those people.

    Not been able to ascertain yet whether they are suitable for flexible conductors, prepared with ferrules or otherwise (would affect the possibility for their use in certain applications, such as mobile & transportable units, and some caravans). 

    EDIT - after a quick look at the video above, there is no “sol”, “r” or “f” marking evident, so it would appear they are suitable for all conductor stranding types?
