Hi
I've got an existing 2-way switch, in amongst a mess of wiring in the attic. There's currently 4 lights and a ceiling fan coming out of one monster junction box, all feeding off one supply cable. I'm trying to sort them out into separate junction boxes.
My question is - the only cables coming from each switch is 3-core & earth, with all the connections being made at the junction box - is that safe (it obviously works!), or would you suggest dropping cables down to the switches and following the 'correct' method (not easy, but am decorating anyway, so not too much of an upset.
