Decided that seeing as I am planning on doing some plumbing work up in my loft soon I will install the loft light I have been planning on for the last 2 years!
I was thinking that in order to provide plenty of light I would like to install a 500W halogen floodlight. Now, whilst this would be somewhat overkill for a sitting room I reckon it would be great for seeing exactly where I am putting my feet and checking I have done things correctly.
In order to wire this into my lighting circuit I was thinking I would install a junction box and spur off the lighting ring (the "How To" section suggests this).
How to wire the floodlight in poses a problem though. Screwing a ceiling rose to the joist and using that to provide connections for switching seems logical, but for 500W? Is there something more appropriate I can use?
