When working out Maximum demand for lighting circuit, I've got 4 50w mains halogen spotlights. Is this classed as 200w? If I got 4 20w LV halogen spots, is this classed as 80w.

Cheers.

before the days of downlights there was a convention to allow at least 100W per fitting on the grounds that bulbs and fitttings do get changed for different ratings. With downlights i would allow 50W per downlight as that is the largest commonly availible downlight bulb.
