Hi guys, super basic question:
For a room layout like this, with my understanding that a lighting circuit downlight radial goes from one point to the next (whereas a socket radial can spur off in multiple directions), would this be acceptable, with the first downlight spurring off to feed two lines of downlights, or would it be "overloading" the first downlight, with 3 tails going in?
Would it be better to use extra cable to feed the 1st downlight on the left and then follow a true radial?
Or a junction box (hager j804) close to the feed splitting into the 2 legs? Maybe avoid a junction box as it's an unnecessary extra junction and therefore potential point of failure?
Cheers!
