Interesting to see that they have a new design of lever connector. I
have to say that I use far more lever connectors than push fit ones (but
I am not doing much with t+e).
I have tended to use the push-fit type for commoning earths in boxes
with multiple two- or three-way lever connectors, meaning I have more
earth wires than could fit into a five-way lever ...
Somehow I still don't trust these over traditional JBs, crimping or
soldering. Are there any concerns about long term reliability -
especially oxidation leading to a bit of resistance leading to a bit of
heat leading to ... ?
The push in wagos seem to bite into the copper quite well,
They're certainly very hard (impossible?) to get off again!
A twisting action does it...
