Battery powered security lights..??

What would the wiring there entail?
Fairly simple. Needs a short length of 4 core cable (3 core + CPC).
Neutral & Earth are connected to the same terminals as the light is already connected to. The Live feed to the light is disconnected from the fitting and joined to the cable going to the PIR (needs an extra terminal). The 4th core is used to bring the switched live back from the PIR and is connected to the L terminal on the light fitting.

Note that there are a few PIRs which don't need a neutral. Avoid these - they will only work properly with incandescent lights.
