There is no light in the loft - it's like the Black Hole of Calcutta up there and so instead of using a torch I want to put up an overhead light with a switch close to the hatch.
This loft is part boarded, it is well insulated and there are so many angled struts it looks like a forest.
I had assumed the lighting circuit operated on a ring, but if it doesn't that's fine.
My point is, with cables all over the place up there, some diving down by the wall and some obviously going to a central ceiling rose, how do I "trace" and find which cable goes to a light switch and which goes to one of several wall lights below. Or does it matter? Can I add a junction box to the nearest cable to hand?
Any ideas how I can trap a cat that comes into our house every night and eats our cat's food?
