Could someone let me know if I got this right
I want to add an external socket to the garden, I have 4 lights that are wired in along 2 fences, the lights are wired with what looks similar to armour cable/heavy duty cable.
The lights have been installed by a pro and are installed very well, they are switched on from a switch in the kitchen
I have uploaded a diagram of what I was thinking of doing (if possible).
Could I install an external switch to the lights, but before the switch, install a junction to run the external socket from. I know that I will have to switch the lights on from inside when using the socket, but the socket will be used rarely (cutting grass etc) This will give me a supply to the socket when needed and let me turn the lights off when using the socket
If that makes sense
sorry for the small diagram but you can see what i was planning
