anyone help? i am fitting six 240v downlights and need some help with the wiring. my ceiling had to come down so i was able to get the wiring ready. what i did was (hope its right cos the ceilings back up now) ran a 1.5mm cable from existing lighting junctin box to first hole the to next and so on till the sixth hole and then to switch. is this right? :oops: or should it be from juction to switch and then junction to lights :oops:
please help before i put the lights in
 
no you should have wired from juntion to lights and junction to switch the wires inside the junction should be wired red feed, red switch, in one connection. black feed black light in one connection and black switch(with some red tape around to show switched live)and red light in a third connection.
