I'd like to wire up a few things in my garden. I was intending to put in two fountain pumps (using weatherproof switches) and a double socket to run some outdoor lights from.
My initial thought was that I could connect a junction box to the electricity supply in the garage by using a spur. Then connect three sets of armoured cable to the junction box, one for each fountain pump and one as a double socket in the shed (to use for the lights).
Could you confirm my understanding of some of the information I have got from this site.
1) I cannot spur from the garage if it is already a spur off the main house ring and I can tell this because it will only have one wire going into it rather than two.
2) I cannot connect that number of appliances up to a spur.
If (2) is correct why do the junction boxes have 3 output cable holes?
Thanks for any help you can give me.
