#+title: Using electrical connectors
WAGO lever nuts (particularly the 221 models) are easy to use, work with solid
core and stranded wire, and are transparent so you can tell that the connections
have been made well. These seem better than twist-on wire nuts (mirettes), which
are far cheaper but can be error prone as it is nearly impossible to tell
whether the connection is good.
