My outside light switch needs to be moved approx 2 feet, its present location is next to the consumer unit and i would like to move it to outside the consumer unit cupboard for easier access.
1. The cable from the outside light to the switch ( double switch) will need to be lengthened, can i join additional cable onto it without it causing any probs? ( 2 foot)
( cable from switch to CU is easy enough to replace)
2. I'd like to have an electrical socket near to where the light switch will be placed, can a single ( or double) socket be wired into the light switch ?
Thanks for your time.
