I am not sure how 'legal' it is but I prefer on balance to extend mains
wires bu strippng, twisting andÂ* soldering the conductors and using
heatshrink tubing on live and neutral, and also an overall heatshrink
tube over the whole lot...

I tried crimping, and if you have the right wires crimp and tool its
fine, but do you?


Also, I can solder in tighter spaces than I can crimp.
