Multiple Wires to one Terminal Block in Celing Rose
Posted: Sun Sep 25, 2016 8:53 pm
Hi - i hope you can help...
I have a ceiling light that has 5 seperate wires that needs connecting to the mains wire in the ceiling.
So i have 5 x Live / 5 x Neutral / 6 x earth (inc 1 extra for the actual light)
The light came with a terminal block (L/N/E) however it is pretty much impossible to insert 5/6 wires into one part of the terminal block.
The mains cable from the ceiling only has 1 x wire - so only 1 x Live / 1 x neutral / 1 x earth to connect to the other side of the terminal block
What is best to do in this situation?
To connect 5 wires to 1!
Thanks
