And on a serious note point me in the direction of one post of yours that is intended to actually help someone, I don't understand why you are here, you seem to have nothing to add?

He never makes constructive posts, he just trolls.

OK then I said:

Please note the bits I've bolded.

You said:

again please note the bit I've bolded. To which I replied:

At no time have I suggested plastering over a junction box in fact my earlier post specifically says this would not be allowed.

This is not the first time you have said that properly crimped and sleeved joints can't be plastered in. The untruth you are peddling is that such isn't acceptable - but it's absolutely nothing to do with junction boxes or siimilar. Its perfectly acceptable under the 17th and with respect, you have been told this several times before by more than one qualified sparky.

Cheers

You Clear state it is acceptable under the 17th so if you are fully up to date with the IEE 17th edition Regs please quote me the regulation that cover this so I can read myself from the copy I have. Being a qualified "Sparky" myself I would like learn from who has full working knowledge of the regulations and has been in the electrical industry for years

526.3 or ask your NICman.

Where does it say it is okay to plaster a joint in a wall

The answer is staring you in the face from the text you have coipied and pasted. Ask your NICman if you can't see it.

It clearly does not say it is okay to plaster a joint within a wall so I do not know what you are reading into it.
