hi
I am going to replace my interior garage light with a motion sensor
light and want the board to double check my wiring.

My interior garage light is controlled by a switch outlet. The wiring
is NM 14 gauge CU which will be let as is and used in this project.
Since i plan on controlling an additional motion sensor light outside
my garage with the same switch i am going to installing a metal
junction box which will be sized to accomadate the wiring.
I will be installing metal clamps and running and securing the wire
according to code. There will be three wires coming into the metal
box. One from the switch the second going to the interior motion sensor
light and the third to the exterior motion sensor light. The three
black, white and green wires will be tied together. A pigtail will
also be used to ground the box with the green wire. Thus the light
will be connected in series so the flick of the switch would turn them
on / off. The exterior motion sensor will be waterproof and chaulked
to prevent water from entering it. The 15Amp breaker will be more that
adequate to support this installation.
Any tips or recommendations is appreciated.

"The three black, white and green wires will be tied together."
That is a dead short.

Back to the drawing board.

I meant that each individual color wire will be tied together
thanks
