Hi there,
I am doing some diy in our house and would very much like to add a hallway light to an existing ceiling lamp circuit.
The existing ceiling lamp is on a 2-way switch system, by the way of using a junction box for incoming power. I believe I could just connect the hallway light next to ceiling lamp and all should be fine, but this seems impossible since I can not find the appropriate junction box without breaking the whole wall/ceiling..
I can, however, see the wire to both the switches, and have easy access to the cable between them (Com-Com, L1-L1 and L2-L2).
My question is therefore: is there any way to wire the new hallway light "in between" the switches in the 2-way wiring, and/or can I do this simply from the nearest-to-lamp switch (with 5 live/neutral wires)??
Thanks for any help!!
