Hi all
First post so please be nice I have a small art studio attached to my garage and I currently have 2 fluorescent lights in there on one switch and I would like to increase the number to 4. I think that I need to change the current light switch to a double and then run the new two lights off that rather than linking all the lights onto a single light switch? I am concerned that 4 lights from one switch is dangerous or that not enough power would get to each bulb. By running 2 lots of 2, that would sort that out as it works like that at the moment.
Just as an aside, there is a ccu in the garage and the wiring is completely visible all the way along the circuit.
Am I talking rubbish or is that a sensible option?
Also, with fluroescents, do I just treat them as normal lightbulbs - there is nothing special that I must do to them?
Thanks for your help - guidance is appreciated.
