I only have wall lights in my hallway and plan to install low wattage downlighters in the centre off the ceiling. As i understand it can I break into this ciruit and use a 4T JB to take a live and neutral to my halogen lights?
I also want to install a light to illuminate a picture in the living room. The wall is solid but I don't want to chase or trunk any cables. On the other side of this solid wall (i.e. the dining room) there is something similar but (I think) lower down. My questions are:
- could I take a live feed from there using terminal blocks by connecting a 1.5mm T&E cable enclosed in a conduit (what type and size of conduit would I require)
- do I have to seal each end with mastic seal to prevent any moisture from entering the enclosure
- without drilling, how can I confirm the exact location of the existing wall light source in the dining room because if my new wall light is not in the same location as that on the other side in the kitchen what are my options (if any)
Thanking you in advance.
