I'm re-wiring my Mothers lights because the previous owner had installed loads of LEDs everywhere (I've so far removed 19 downlights from a 2 bed bungalow, lol) and also used junction boxes under floorboards (when he did bother to use them; some cables were connected with terminal blocks + tape) and I've just discovered that he's connected every single light in the property to both circuits/MCBs.
I can see the thinking behind it (If one MCB fails; all lights still work) but is this safe? I can't see it being acceptable by the regs. I'm going to split them anyway but was just wondering...
