Good but keying could be bette
Good connector easy to fit, but if the two halves will be reasonably frequently disconnected then I find the keying is not so easy to make sure they are mated in the correct orientation (I.e. an inexperienced person can easilly try to force the halves together in the wrong orientatio
Does it job
I bought this mainly for Xmas lights outside, it’s been a blessing, as i can turn them on and off and I don’t even have to get out of my armchair.
IP67 but needs tightening thoroughly.
Bought these for a water feature in the garden , whilst they say they are IP67 they need tightening thoroughly to achieve this. Internal screwed pins are quite small and fiddly.
Electrician install
Electrician installed this so can’t comment on how easy it is to fit but it’s a very neat compact bit of kit. Great for winter when it’s cold and wet, you don’t need to leave the house to turn garden lights on!
Just add wate
Bought to connect kennel heaters to an outside power source. Practical and elegant, great (precision made) product.
Good switch but be careful choosing its use
Firstly this is a fantastic switch for garden lighting etc and the remote is powerful and works well. Beware though it will not control a 13 amp socket as it has internal fuses of 8, 2.5 and 2.5 amps respectively for the three output glands. You wont know this from the description. You also need outdoor cable ideally with solid wires as the internal connections are quite small and finicky so if your using armoured cable with stranded wires its very difficult to connect. that said if wired properly it works well and the supplier ML fittings are absolutely superb in their customer service. the internal fuses were blowing as I thought it would support a 13 amp plug and the fuses are not standard – they cannot be bought in normal electrical supplier stores. One email and a live webchat to Ml and I was speaking to their technical support expert who explained the issue and sent me replacement fuses overnight. Very pleased with it but be careful in what you expect from it.
Very suitable for non submersed marine connections.
Very suitable for marine connections. Not suitable for long term total submersion. Quite adequate and resilient quality. Good price, delivered quickly.
Excellent outdoor remote switching uni
Used this for remote switching of patio led light strings.
Well made unit, rain proof box, good remote.
Reasonably easy to install though fitting wires is a fiddle. Easier if the circuit board is removed from the box (two screws). Then the cables can be threaded through the cable glands, the conductors pushed into the connector blocks and screwed down before securing the circuit board back inside the box. And it all works a treat. Three channels switched using a remote. Remote range 12m.
Knightsbridge JB0011 Plug and Socket Cable Connector, 3-Pole, IP68, 16 A
Excellent waterproof plug and socket for garden tools-recommend to other buyers.
Excellent product for quick connects.
This product is great for power tool quick connects for power and dust extraction. Rated at 16amps and with a 1.5mm power cord this will handle most power tools up to 3600watts. Very slim unit but will not take a cable any bigger than 1.5mm2 and is easy to install.
Good products bu
The only problem I find with these is that you end up with a lot of redundant male plugs. I use them as a quick connect for my power tools where 1 supply lead suffices for all. Pity you couldn’t order the female separately
Good quality waterproof connecto
Well made but I wouldn’t trust it at 16A. It’s fine at 2kw continuous with a resistive load though.
Fantastic
This is fantastic as you don’t have to bend down to switch on , just press the the remote.
Thanks.
Good quality very fiddly to wire but do what I need!
Excellent quality very fiddly to wire, but do exactly what I require!
Good in NEARLY all aspects BUT...
box is of good and can be installed fairly easily.
BUT KABEL TERMINAL & ACCESS ARE THE WORST i’ve ever come across. far to awkward and fiddly to access for any ADULT HAND. kabel openings are also poor as some where twisted and needed to be readjusted. for that kind of money i would expect something better.
Safe and compact 240v connection.
This is a well designed and robust piece of kit .It is ideal where a long cable is not required to be attached permanently to a device. Example …power cable fed through a shelf or worktop where a 13a plug would not go. An extension where a bulky 13a socket and plug would normally be required. Takes a few seconds longer to connect/disconnect as it is twist secured.
Excellent for outside use
I installed this under my deck to control lights. Remote will switch it on and off from inside the house approx 5m away. Useful settings for always off, always on or control by remote.
GOES THE DISTANCE.
I CAN NOW CONTROL THE LIGHTING IN MY CABIN AT THE END OF THE GARDEN FROM MY HOUSE.
ONLY PROBLEM IS WHEN I AM IN THE CABIN WITHOUT THE REMOTE THERE IS NO OVERRIDE TO TURN THE LIGHTS ON
They work very well
This is the second one I’ve fitted and they work very well. The only problems with them is the outgoing terminals are very small and fiddly to insert the cables and the cord grip is too close to them. Apart from that they are a good piece of ki
In line mains cable connector.
Stupidly cut the cable on some hedge trimmers by not paying attention to what I was doing. Ideal way to reconnect the cable with a water tight joint. Easy to assemble and connect original cable.
A solid, decent produc
Solidly made and easy to wire, the screws are not captive so don’t drop them in the grass!
Seem well made and easy to connec
Nice product for the price
Not totally convinced that this is waterproof but still handy piece of kit used in my pond pump and filter cabinets making disassembly easy.
Very happy - exactly what they are supposed to be, weatherproof 3 core connectors
If these are what you need, then buy them. The work perfectly and I have no reservations about the ones I bought.
You could wish that they were cheaper, but they are a bit of a niche product.
Great at the control of a remote
I love these, I now have 3 and am able to switch them on and off with the remote control without having to crawl under and through bushes to get to the switch
Very easy if you are looking for safe plug/socket arrangement to connect and disconnec
Used it for Chandelier wire connection inside the loft to disconnect when needed to clean the Chandelier.
A bit early to tell
The 5 outlets are quite close together making tightening the gland nuts a little awkward with my fat fingers! but they appear to be effective so far. The connectors are for both stranded wire and solid core, but I found the strands more difficult to insert as they were more liable to flex if you didn’t manage to get them lined up perfectly whilst trying to secure- maybe down to my lack of experience, not sure. Overall, very good at the price I paid. Could have gone for much more expensive options, but very happy with the choice I made.
Two LEDs don't work
Quick and easy to install, however two of the LED’s do not work, but did not find this out until after fitting, so could not return for a replacement. Its compact and I needed to wire in some SWA armoured cables. These need to be spaced apart, as putting them into the box next to each other was not possible due to lack of room for the associated cable glands. I drilled the bottom of the box and added some small bolts to link with the earthing gland ring for the SWA cables. You could get three SWA cables into a 5 way box, but no more. However, if you are wiring using normal cabling, no issues. Connections are fiddly to do, but OK. Just wish I had known about the faulty LED’s . I guess I should have checked the box prior to fitting. 🙁
ot sure if its completely waterproof
used it to connect cable to my pond pump.
its underground but not underwater.
Brillia
This is my second one for controlling lights in my pagodas. Works perfectly. Highly recommend.
A great find
It was the perfect solution to my requirement. It mad the joint look good and not bulky. My only slight downside was the quality of the securing screws to the cables themselves. They were difficult to get a good tighten up and the screw heads were quite soft. They had to be tightened with great care not to round off the heads. Otherwise the perfect conector.
4 years of good service. Great product.
Have this under a deck in my garden connected to three light circuits. Has never failed in four years of being used almost daily. Now I want to integrate it into my smart home system and have bought an RF to WiFi bridge. I’ve been able to use this to replicate 2 other 433MHz remotes but not the one for this product. On the network console, I can see the other 2 remotes clearly but pressing any button on the Knightsbridge remote gives nothing at all. If anyone can give advice I’d really appreciate it!
Great produc
Great product simple installation… The remote works from a good distance
Water resistant qualities are a major bonus in an industrial situatio
Easy to fit. I’m confident in their use in an outdoor environment which is vey importa
Works like a charm
Does exactly what it says. I used to to extend a power lead outside, seems to be fully waterproof, everything working fine!
Weatherproof and easy to use
These are great for combining lights etc on one remote controlled panel. Our electrician recommended and fitted our hot tub, lights, water feature all on one control. No problems with snow and rain etc.
Great produc
Reliable product.A bit difficult to install if you are not an qualified person:
Near and tidy
Very neat solution to repair a chewed cable on an electric fan heater. Have purchased two different lengths of H05RN-F cable To be able to swap out when a longer cable is required without using bulky extension lead.
Only used indoors, so can’t comment on how waterproof it is.
I am pretty competent at most trades having spent 50 years in the building industry. It therefore came as a bit of a surprise that I did not immediately understand how to re-assemble this connector after I had dismantled it and wired the two halves.
OK, that’s my fault, I was expecting it to be simpler than it is. I accept the blame for my slight confusion and I do recommend it. It is in fact easy enough BUT I do suggest that you watch carefully when you take it apart so that you can re-assemble it quicker than I did.
I have not tested it in water but it inspires confidence in its water-tightness.
Good produc
Good product, well made, a bit fiddly to wire up
Hens LED cable extensio
I used this connector to extend the hens LED light cable, also put Araldite in the ends to ensure good weather sealing.
Brillia
Used to install exterior lighting. Easy to fit, great quality and watertight.
Outside power supply
Box arrived quickly and as expected, just not quite sure how the cables would be water proof with the cable through as instructed. Drilled a hole through rubber fitting and pulled cable through work fines! Remote control excellent.
Great produc
Great product. Good that you can easily seperate them when wired up unlike the cheaper ones where you have to dismantle them.
Quality plug and socke
Good quality weatherproof plug ideal for connecting my boats auto tille
Good but could be bette
A good way connect 2 lengths of 3 core cable together. My only gripe is that the keying system to ensure that the 2 halves are connected together correctly are inside the halves of the connector. So you must visually check before putting the connector halves together that they are orientated correctly. Simple line on the outside of each half would get round this problem.
Good price. Does the job well. Quick delivery.
For external garden socket for lights. My electrician told me about remotely controlled external sockets. I thought perfect for what I wanted. Not many, if any other makes on the market. My electrician has fitted a few of this make in his own garden, so goes without saying. First close and lock of the door flap requires gentle up and in of the catch.
Oh yes, garden lights up soon, one happy wife, one happy life (mine!)
Works well, be aware all outputs remain off after power cu
This works really well, however if there is a power cut all the device switches remain in the off position after the power is restored. So if thinking to use for likes fish pond pump suggest separate override switch when going on Holliday otherwise you may return to some very unhappy fishes!
Good quality easy to use
Good quality well made used for some low voltage garden lights and did the job using thin cables
Superb - makes life so much easie
Problem: sockets, switches manually Turing off garden lights, pond lights, water feature.
Solution: Knightsbridge 3G Remote Switch Box.
I am so impressed with the performance. The remote is radio frequency therefore not reliant on IR and not issues with light or line of view. I control my lights through the patio door with the blinds down without any issues. This unit makes it so easy now to turn the lights off without having to go out in the evening in the rain or cold.
Wiring using multi string cables is very fiddly as the space is limited between cable clamp and terminals. the terminals are screw clamp terminals. The clamps do not make a clean passage for multi strand cables. I soldered the ends and this makes it much easier. I used a long nose rounded pliers to help with inserting the cables into the terminals. The PG20 glands I found to be slightly loose and these needed tightening, however I replaced these with flex conduit glands as I used flex conduits to protect the cables.
The remote does require pairing. Before you close the lid, ensure you pair the remote. After pairing its so simple and so impressive.
Good quality Connecto
I have used these as part of test equipment setup.
They enable me to connect different items or configurations of equipment.
They are easy to wire up and reliable in use.
Easily recommended.
easy to install.
i was cutting my hedge when i cut the lead so i phoned some people for a quote they said 70-90 my son said wait i can fix this with a connector block so he told me what one to buy and now works perfectly
Good connectio
So far so good. Fitting was easy and does exactly what I wanted to do.
did what they should.
Did the cable extension job I wanted, easy to fit.
Sturdy seal
Good product, feels study. Lost a star because of the yellow ring that seals the flex into the unit really doesn’t seem to do much and falls out. Otherwise all good
Happy Days garden lights
Got this for my garden lights Perfect no having to get up and down to switch them off
Brillia
Worked a treat, only had one supply to the lights, I now have the remote facility to operate 5 individual areas
Easy to install but overpriced
Very easy to install. Parts used are VERY cheap so be careful installing new fuses and fixing cables to the unit. Two LED indicator lights have stopped working but the the connection is fine and outdoor lights come on without issue. Cheapest I could find but cheap parts used do not reflect the price tag!
Works grea
Excellent product, a bit fiddly to wire up but once it’s up and running it’s grea
This was relatively easy to install and was the perfect solution to connect a 240v pond pump to the existing mains cable. Once connected, I was able to bury it under the gravel. My only reason for dropping 1 star is that the connector labelling for each cable could have been clearer. On 1 side I accidentally wired it to the screws next to the letters, rather than the holes. Thankfully, there wasn’t an earth wire on the pump, so no harm done once rewired.
Order refund request in error.
I requested the return/refund for this item in error. The item looks fine and seems to be good quality and I intend to use it. Please cancel the refund.
Would recommend
Just what we needed to extend a set of outdoor lights that only came with 1 foot of cord between the lights finishing and the plug socket, cut off the fused socked and added 10m of cable, super job and great quality
Excellent Connecto
Used this with weatherproof cable to extend mains cable to garden fountain. Robust easy to use/connect and tighten, excellent and clear instructions with diagram. Good size as well not too small and not too chunky. Delighted.
Remote works well
Bought to replace the same unit purchased a few years ago which stopped working hence my rating. Additionally when connecting a heavy duty armoured cable there is limited clearance for bending wires.
Perfect for extending pressure washer cable
Awesome piece of kit this. Used for extending a car battery charger and a pressure washer with its excellent ip raging. Used 3 times and no issues ye
Awesome
Excellent bit of kit I now control my garden lights and water feature from my living room and the remote is 15 Mtrs away in my man cave
Quality gea
Ordered this as a switch for my pond lights. Was easy to install. Quality of the plastic was good and definitely weather proof. All info was in the box as needed. Highly recommend.
Well hi to all parents and people who wish to have control of electricity and console playing children……
I have a problem with my children using their consoles at night …..
Alexa plugs easy to get round?
Easy to take out a plug connected to Alexa out of a wall and plug anything back in to the wall ….
I found this online …after thinking outside the box.
This is an outside infrared remote controlled plug point for the garden.
Can be turned on by one push of a button and also can be turned off by one push of a button.
Since I have installed this I’ve been very happy with the product and I know now that my teenager is sleeping at night rather than playing consoles and not trying to go to school because he hasn’t slept…..YAY!!!!
God loves the man or woman that made this idea you’ve just saved my home and given my boy a better chance of getting better grades
I would recommend this to anybody.
10 out of 10 on the grounds of that children don’t understand remote controls anymore and I dont have to constantly worry that hes up all night playing consoles and failing at school because hes knackered from no sleep .in the past have taken the console away but this way it stops his room on the press a button till homework or chores are done.
got to love our generation 🙂 and the human that made this device….
Reasonable for price but not really pro range
Switches are not that positive but large and easy to find/feel in dark.Wiring straightforward but care with mounting screws ,could split holes if too large and definitely secure face with care not powerscrewdriver as screws could strip plastic
Internal dimensions
Could do with slightly more room between cable clamps and terminal insertion points.
Excellent choice
Neat looking box with excellent internal fixings.ideal for garden use.
Spotligh
We had lights put in our conservatory,we could have the lights come on as we wanted being remote controlled
Works well
Required electrician to wire in but use garden lights on separate controls which is very effective
Fantastic items
Love this product this is the second one I bought I have water features and out side lights working of them had one of them for over a year and had no problems with it a bit expensive but a great produc
Don't over tighten the cap screes
Used this for my fish pond cables work’s a trea
Reliability
Very easy to install, reliable so far, use it for garden lights.
Amperage tolerance is going to be down to how well it lasts but the unit was well constructed with various features to improve the water resistance.
The screws don’t easily shred the plastic so you aren’t left with a flimsy case.
The ease of install will really come down to how confident you are with electrics and wiring plugs. For someone who knows what he’s doing this is going to be easy enough compared to various other units i’ve tried.
Just ensure the mains supply is on the correct side of the unit to avoid installing upside down or the wrong way around. Sounds obvious but people aren’t always sure how trustworthy the photos are. The 3 pin plug enters from the left hand side on the unit I purchased.
Great product, works a treat!
Great product, doesn’t need line of sight, so it can be fitted in a store room or shed. I got a professional electrician to install mine, so not sure how easy it is to set up, I know it didn’t take him long!
Small enough to hide this fitting behind floodligh
Really pleased with this fitting. Easy to use and very practical.
Great piece if Kit!
Great piece of kit, used to power water feature, spotlights, plugs etc
Piece of advice, unscrew the board off the unit so that you can feed the wires through and connect to terminals as there is very little space for you to maneuver. The terminals are also small and not very robust
once connected, its awesome! i can sit in our living room and control everything without having to stand in a certain position or having to aim at the unit.
Great product and works brilliantly with our water feature and feature lights. Just make sure you read the instructions carefully first! Wire up the power supply first and then program the remote BEFORE wiring up the load side. Save yourself a lot of problems. Otherwise brill.
Excellent remote system.
Good item easy to install and wire .Came with all glands which was handy.Highly recommend seller and item.
Saves getting wet turning outside lights on!
Using product to control garden lighting. Proving very useful. As has been mentioned by others, the lid is not easy to snap shut, but I found it helps to apply pressure to lid and snap the catch shut.
Fixed the Flymo
I used this to fix a broken wire in our Flymo and it worked perfectly – very durable. Good product.
Five Stars
Great piece of kit, although a bit fiddly to connect all the wires, and it works well.
excellent produc
excellent. this is for my grden light and the remote works inside my house and even from diveway more than 20m. straight forward wiring. briiliant produc
Supe
This product is easy to install and means I don’t have to go out in the dark or rain for instance to turn my garden lights on or off. A simple touch of the button from my lounge window and hey presto ! Great for intruder spotting I should imagine………..you can light up from the security of being indoors.
Wired this up the other week so I could put a new light on the patio. It’s got a good build quality and simple easy to follow instructions. Was not hard work putting it up but getting the wires into the terminals was a bit of a ballsache. Wired my pond pump and my acuity light into two of the five outlets and off I went. Worked first time and the remote operates from
Inside the house with the doors shut which surprised me as I thought you would have to be in direct line if the box for it to work. Still three outlets so I’m going to add some feature lights to make that garden useable at night for parties etc. Really pleased with this little box.
Very good quality, very pleased with this item
Mounted in the summerhouse by window, controls fountain, spotlights and lights on summerhouse. Very good quality, very pleased with this item.
Looks well designed.
This is not really a product one can get excited about; but having said that it took me ages to choose since from previous experience I have become paranoid about water ingress causing a short circuit on a product used outdoors. I only needed a box for a 20 watt LED PIR lamp, and this 30 amp box is rather overkill for my needs, but I wanted a box that could have double cable entry from the bottom to minimise the risk of water ingress. The box seems very well designed and was easy to install. It was nice having the oversize termination block. My only concern was that the cutouts for the cable entry seemed rather too easy to push out, but as everything else looks well designed I’m sure it’s not an issue. Oh, the box isn’t the smallest thing but I’d rather have something with ample space.
Good
A simple IP66 outside switch box, effective and well made.
Brilliant thing this is
Brilliant thing this is. Bit awkward to wire but very well made.theres a lovely clunk noise out of it when it switches just like closing the door on a good car. Good range on the remote too.
Great piece of ki
Great product, range on remote is good and didn’t have to install in plain site, installed inside of garage and remote works from inside my home. Had a query and the sender replied quickly and resolved the issue fas
Marvellous
This absolutely does what it states…faultlessly. It works from inside the house, turning on various lights and items in the garden with the press of a button or two. It has never not worked, and we’re delighted with it.
Really like the idea of rubber inserts to cover the screws
Having bought several outdoor junction boxes that were quite frankly, not fit for purpose, I finally found just what I needed. The Knightsbridge 30A IP66 junction box ticks all the boxes. Weatherproof to the highest rating of IP66, solid construction and the added bonus of a five point connector block. Really like the idea of rubber inserts to cover the screws, ensuring no ingress of water once covered. Should be adequate and up to the job for many years to come.
Four Stars
Nice bit of kit. only -, remote could be a little more advanced, perhaps with timing options.
Had Electrician install 2 in the garden for remote control ...
Had Electrician install 2 in the garden for remote control lighting, been in 3 months without problem.
Also with all IP rated sockets I have seen/used opening and shutting the case is fiddly so have not marked down although this one too is a fiddly
In progress
Have not wired it in yet , still building the pond watch this space .
it does the job as claimed. however;
1. the wiring is tricky due to lack of space inside. thank fully you only have to do it once. the distance between the outer body and connector is too short in my opinion.
2. although it is remote control for outside use i think there is a need for a manual switch off on the unit.
3. remote off and on are in a strange diagonal pattern. they should be straight.. the marking is too faint as a look of unfinished product.
so one star off
Nice easy unit to install and set up
Nice easy unit to install and set up. Nice not having to go out in the rain to turn on lights, I just turn them on from the remote.
Good quality (although mine only works with 4 outputs for some reason!), I now wish I had of researched the options better as I would have opted for the lightwaverf setup.
