Hi,
I'm looking to wire in a second light on an existing circuit, currently mains comes in from a fused switch and goes to a single floodlight with PIR sensor. So twin core + earth cable from the switch goes straight into the floodlight using 2.5mm cable. From how its wired i believe its perm on but only comes on when PIR is triggered.
The second light i wish to add also has a PIR but i want it to work independently, so unaffected by the other light.
Now i will need to add a junction box where the current floodlight is, as the new light will need a new run of cable from there.
the junction box i have has 5 terminals, what is the correct way to wire this so each can be used independently? I have had a go with a basic diagram, will this work or do i need more terminals to make this work correctly?
thanks in advance!
