Hide lighting cables under junction box?
Good evening,
I have four cables with light current for four lamps in our hallway. However, I would like to install only three and hide the fourth cable under a junction box. My question now is whether I should connect the wires individually to terminal blocks or all to one terminal.
Thank you in advance.
According to the description you mean a complete lamp connection with
Phase, neutral conductor and protective conductor (L, N, PE – brown, blue, green yellow).
You cannot connect these veins. A separate clamp, which protects against contact and short-circuit, belongs to each vein. Can clamps are used for screwing or spring clamps (WAGO).
Great, thanks. I’ll do that.
It doesn’t matter because they don’t come into contact with electricity.
And instead of luster clamps, I would generally use Wago clamps.
All right, thank you.
If the four lamp lines hang parallel on a switch, and it plugs all wires into a terminal from one lamp supply line, it has a short circuit. So it doesn’t matter if he takes a clamp for all veins or ader…. No one knows whether the feed line is clamped on the opposite side (which I do not suspect) or is still connected in a ready-to-use manner.
He talks about 4 lamps that are not yet connected. So I don’t know where the current comes from the lamp that is not connected. Ask the questioner to get the fuse out to get the whole power off. And then the connections are inserted individually into a three Wago clamp.
