Hi,
I'm planning to put some new lights in the loft and wanted to check I'm going about it properly. Any advice is welcome!
This shows what I'm planning:
There are 8 lights because they have to be mounted quite low and there are joists in several places which will block a lot of light.
The junction box JB1 at the bottom of the pic is an existing one I'll take a feed from. The lighting circuit is protected by a 6A MCB.
I'm planning to use 1.0mm T&E, a 1 gang 2 way switch, oval bulkhead lights (because they are cheap!), and energy efficient bulbs.
Everything will be mounted on visible woodwork in the loft space.
Am I doing anything dumb here? Thanks in advance for your help!
