Hi,
I am a glass dealer selling such at fairs around the country. In order to better display my goods I would like to devise a simple lighting rig to uplight my goods using light bases.
I have purchased a number of 220v/240v downlighters, which I intend to fit with GU10 LED lamps instead of the normal halogen and then use "upside down" as uplighters.
So far so good as far as concept is concerned, my difficulty is: how do I wire, say, 5 of these lights together in order that they can simply plug into a nearby mains connection.
I think I know how to wire the lights in parallel, but I do not know how to connect to the mains supply, or whether a switch is required between the lights and the plug connection, or whether the wiring has to complete a circle!
Hope this makes some sense, in diagrammatic form, therefore, how do I wire this up:
