Change ceiling rose for LED DOWNLIGHTERS

[Hack 73]

Hi,
I'm just about to change the existing bathroom light for 4 led down lights. My questing is can I run them off the live and neutral currently feeding the existing light by just extending the curcuit. I've got easy access above in the loft.

Assuming the LED lights are 'mains voltage' ones, that should be OK. The circuit would have to be RCD protected - so, if it is not already (in your consumer unit) that would have to be addressed. Provided that your ceiling is at least 2.25m above floor level, this would not be 'notifiable' work.

Kind Regards, John
