I've noticed that a spur coming off a socket in my property is just a little too short. Whoever did it made it just a few mm shy, and as a result the wire is under a large amount of tension and I worry it'll slip out and cause a hazard.

If I want to extend it 20mm in order to reduce the tension in the cable, can I do so with a simple in-line Wago connector and a little piece of T&E to clear the gap, or is there a better practice?
