You'd need crimps designed for the wire size and current - probably the

I have some proper tools, all I need then is the yellow crimps, CPC? or
Dave's suggestion of chocolate blocks. I am going to make it accessible ish,
so I suppose that's OK.
Either are good, in industry crimps are used to save time.
You can break up the chock-block connectors and push them into the
corners, tape them up with insulation tape if it makes you feel
better. Remember this is a ring circuit, therefore their should not
be any connection between the CPC, Phase or neutrals between each
leg.
This is better explained in the IEE On-Site guide.
