    Wire joining in db

    Quick question, can join wires in a db or not?
    I don't see the logic of it being illegal? It is accessible and most of the time easily visible
    If it was illegal to join or extend wires in a db what must one do if you move breakers and wires are now to short or in the case of a burnt neutral? Rewire the circuit?

    I am busy with a DB replacement, 60% of the wires are too short, ferule and double sleeve, or if the budget allows fit a row of terminal blocks.

    When we built control panels every single wire is joined in the control panels, power and control wires.
    Comments are my opinion, unless regulations are attached to support the comment. This is social media, not a court room.

      Ferrule and insulation tape - no problem. Don't re-wire
