Description
This is one of the small parts that makes a wiring job tidier. The levers lift, a conductor drops into each side, the levers close, and the joint is made without twisting, soldering or a screwdriver. Better still, it can be released and remade later if plans change. The housing is clear, so the wire can be seen properly seated on each side rather than taken on trust, and the whole thing is short and slim enough to tuck away where space is tight. It comes as a pack of ten.
We use these for the fiddly moments: a flex that needs joining, a fitting whose tail is shorter than the job wants, a table lamp being rewired at the bench. They suit anyone who would rather work quickly and be able to undo the joint again, and they are as welcome in a workshop drawer as in a toolbox. Because they can be opened and closed repeatedly, they are handy for testing too, when a lamp needs proving before everything goes back together. Keep them indoors and dry; damp, weather and outdoor use are not for them.
The clear finish is deliberately anonymous, which is why we like it: inside a ceiling rose or behind a shade, it disappears rather than drawing the eye. Care amounts to keeping the housing free of dust and grease so the levers move freely; if one ever feels slack or refuses to grip, retire it and take a fresh connector from the pack. It carries a one year warranty. The same range also runs to clear cable grips and a clear plugtop, plus lampholders and adjustable converters, so a repair or a made up fitting can be put together from matching parts.

Frequently Asked
How many connectors come in the pack?
Ten, so there are normally a few spares left in the drawer once the job is done.
What size is each connector?
Each one measures 23mm wide, 14mm long and 11mm high, which keeps it compact where room is limited.
Can the joint be opened again?
Yes. Lift the levers and the conductors release, then close them again to remake the joint, which is useful when testing or reworking.
Is it suitable for a bathroom or outdoors?
No. It is rated IP20, so it is for dry indoor locations only.
Are any tools needed to work it?
No, the levers are operated by hand.
Is there a warranty?
It carries a one year warranty.
