wiring light of powerpoint circuit
 
Hello all,

I am wiring 3 downlights of the back of a power point and wanting to
istall a light switch to turn the downlights on and off. What i was
looking at doing is having the neutral of the power point connected to
the neutral on the light transformer and having the active connected to
one end of the switch and then comming out into the transfrmer for the
light.

Is this the correct way to wire up this circuit ?

Thanks

That's Correct- Only switch the Hot, never the neutral...
