    is 236 parts 1 and 2 equal to nvq3?

    Moving House and taking Wall Lights

    Hi Dave, The easiest solution would be to use 5A junction boxes to safely terminate the cables. You would only have to drill a fixing hole or maybe you might be able to use one of the existing fixing holes. You should be able to do this yourself if you managed to fix the wall lights yourself...
