I want to connect two outdoor post lights in my garden (each one uses 1 20W energy saving bulb ?
I was planning to copy the idea I saw for some commercial outdoor power kits - basically, armoured cable running from the lights (it'll be under a patio), thru a wall to an indoor junction box - a lead from the junction box then simply plugs into an existing mains socket via an RCD plug.
My question is how do I connect the two lights - can both go to the same junction box and run off the same RCD plug ?
I understand that because this is classed as a temporary supply (I would only use it at certain times of the year), it wouldnt be subject to the electrical regs.
