June 6, 20215 yr Got what must be a simple question. I've got three SWA 3 core cables that are already fixed and run into a external waterproof box that now need to be joined. Just had a look on CEF and Screwfix and their are a lot of options, so what is the current/best fave for joining 3x 4/6mm single cables?

Yep, IP65 plastic junction box, external glands/banjos with armour earthed along with the earth in the 3 core for continuity. The source and destination of the cables also have a separate earthing rod.
