Default Buried Electrical connections


"Steve" wrote in message
.uk...
I know that if an electrical connection is to be plastered over it must be
crimped or soldered.

Could someone please provide a link to a suitable joining piece (either
crimp or solder).

My screwfix catalogue seems to only show standard crimp connections.

Any advice on regulations regarding this type of joint would also be
helpful.

Thanks
Steve.


I don't actually understand your posting. Screwfix -other suppliers are
available- supply Crimps AWG 22-18, 16-14, 12-10 (insulated terminal) and
mm˛ 0.5-1, 1.5-2.5, 4-6 (insulated terminal). these crimps _must_ be
'crimped' using a specified crimping (distorting) force to assure
connectivity - this is achieved by utilising a ratchet action cramping tool:
