November 3, 20232 yr Laying wires for smoke alarms and wondered if the terminals support 2no 1.5mm2 cable. I want to daisy chain. Thinking of AICO EI146E alarms. Using 3core and earth provides the interlink.
November 3, 20232 yr Don't waste money on 1.5mm, totally unnecessary. Use 1mm 3 core & earth and the terminals are large enough for three of those.

November 3, 20232 yr No, I am not aware of any domestic accessories that need ferules. That is mainly for terminating stranded cable.
