Hi All,
I would like to fit two external lights. These will be 40w or so bulkhead fittings. How can I get power to them?
I have some a socket on the inside of the wall where they would go underneath the kitchen counter. This circuit is not RCD protected and has a 32A breaker.
From what I have read I can have a spur from the socket to a 30mA RCD. This will then be connected to an external switch and then to the lights (see picture). Is this correct/safe?
I intended to use galvanised conduit to house the cable (mainly for the look). What cabling should I use outside? It will be about 2m to the first light and then a further 2m to the second light.
Thanks in advance.
Doug
