Junction box with more than one light
Hi all,
I'm rewiring part of my lounge light circuit to include six small
lights which will be switched on and off in two's by the switches on a
three-gang switch. I've never done lighting before, but here's what I
propose after a good read of Collins.
Use three junction boxes, one per pair of lights. Each box to have a
cable to the switch and two more cables, one to each light. Permanent
mains to be daisy chained through the three boxes.
Is there a limit to the number or lights that should come off one
junction box? Is it better to use one box per light? I ask as I plan
to extend the kitchen circuit to three fittings, all quite near, and it
seems that one box could do it for all three.
