Great! Last consideration is the tolerance stackup of the knives piercing into the cable. Lots of variables here (cable placement, base tolerance, rotating piece tolerance, knife location tolerance, knife dimensional tolerance) - and it is critical that the knifes pierce the right cable, perfectly, everytime. I'll leave it with you :) Bye!

Hi, how are you doing? thank. I'm working on the 2.5mm wires issue. and for the connecting wires into conductors, Yes they are push-fit now. OK, I'll change them to standard screw terminal.

Good morning. Very interesting! I have not seen anyone do it like this before. Please note some things:

Also, please note that the current carrying capacity of this box should be at least 32A (with some safety margin). So i think the knives will have to be increased in size a bit. And that means more force to pierce into the cable. I assume that you expect the electrician to push with their hands to cut the knives into the cable? From experience, this is actually very hard, it would probably need a tool or lever action to make it practical.
