Hi, I wonder if anyone can help please.
I have an existing ceiling rose and have created a new dropped ceiling.
I am installing 4 downlights and have taken a 1.5mm T & E from each light to a junction box, and a feed from the ceiling rose to the junction box.
The questions I'd appreciate some guidance on are:
1. I have left the junction box completely accessible but whilst I know the lights must not be earthed - do I do connect the earth from the feed from the rose to junction box, whilst leaving the earth from the lights?
2. Whilst the junction box is fully accessible, the ceiling rose will not be accessible after doing the work - is that a problem? Do I need to leave it accessible?
3. The lights I purchased have a dimple driver with a short two core cable coming out, and a spare live and neutral in the terminal block. This short cable appears redundant - can I get rid of it and just run the T & E from the light to the junction box?
For the record they are Aurora downlights.
Thanks for listening
