We learn more about a revolutionary prewired junction box that is set to take the market by storm.
The Quickwire prewired junction box is the latest product from the designer of the ‘flex7’ lighting connection and control system, offering dramatic time savings in comparison to traditional junction boxes.
Quickwire’s uniqueness comes from the fact it is already prewired and is specifically designed to help electricians save significant installation time on-site – all four connections can be wired in as little as seven seconds!
You simply strip your wire, then push it into the push-fit connectors for quick and easy, screwless termination. The push fit design completely negates the need for fiddly screws, clamps, clips or covers.
The unit is prewired with clearly labelled entry points for error-free wiring, and its compact design means it will fit through a 32mm diameter hole in the ceiling.
If you find yourself needing to disconnect one of your cables then it’s not a problem. The simple disconnection tool allows for quick and easy disconnection, making Quickwire completely reusable.
INSTALLATION
Orientate and align the pre-cut cable and insert into the appropriate cable entry point. Each wire should guide itself into the correct terminal. Push the cable until there is resistance.
Check that there is a sufficient length of outer cable sheath available for clamping (Fig 1) and that an unbroken length of conductor occupies the full extent of the window (Fig 2).
Push the cable unit until it snaps into place. Repeat the process for additional cables. Push in any unused cable entries.
FIXING
CABLE REMOVAL
Mount the removal tool. Place your thumb on the thumb grip and, using your other hand, squeeze the side arms so they locate beneath the snaps.
Press down on the thumb grip and push forward until the removal tool stops.
Release the removal tool and pull out the cable.
