I have fitted five outside LED decking "up" lights looped together with 3 core length of flex.
(I tested that all was working OK by connecting a plug to them and plugging them in).
I now wish to connect these to an outside switch (instead of a plug) and power them by taking a link from an inside "fused" point. (This fused point currently powers the dishwasher and the switch remains on at all times).
Could someone please confirm I am correct in my assumption of the following wiring process:-
1. The live wire from the outside lights connects to one of the terminal points in the outside switch.
2. The blue wire from the outside lights get connected with the blue wire from the inside 'spur'.
3. The earth from the outside lights gets connected with the earth wire from the inside 'spur'.
4. The live wire from the inside spur then connects to one of the other terminal points in the outside switch to complete the connection?
