You’ll need to cable tie the box shut to be fully compliant.
Don’t forget you’ll need to sleeve the earth cable as well.
You can buy short lengths of it on eBay or scamazon if you don’t want the usual long lengths they sell.

Mr_Smyth
Need to cut and rejoin these light circuit wires tomorrow, thought I could get a £9.99 set of crimp tool and connectors but it seems it’s all big trade sets or wago’s and as these will be boxed in I want a failsafe connection
Not sure what I need from screwfix/toolstation/B&Q without buying a whole suitcase of connectors I’m never going to use?
