Hello all

I would like to wire 3 x 150 watt PIR Security lights on the outside of my house to make my wife feel more secure when im working nights.

I intend to wire the lights into the existing lighting circut via a fused spur and a junction box in the loft.

I have included a diagram of how I would like to do this but could you please let me know if this is the correct and safest way to instal them?

The wiring arrangement looks okay.
Remember that because the cable will be outside, your cable selection should be suitable for the environment. ie. direct sunlight, frost and mechanical protection.
Is this circuit already protected by an RCD, that should be a consideration.
Also if the cables are routed on the outside wall, consideration to building regulation must be taken.
