So, to the reason I've visited this forum before I start training again next month -

Hi,
I know this has been discussed many times on here, but am about to buy one and don't really know which to be honest.

I have to put 25 led down lights in a garage , customer wants them all on one switch line which will be 100 metres long. I'm going to use 1mm. Should I break them down into two lots of 14 ?
Might be a silly question but, on a constant current led driver for example 700ma is this the max current drawn on the output side whether 1,2,3 or however many led are connected, only reason I ask is because I saw some LEDs connected with cat 5 and wondered if that was ok to do?!
Novice here. I am looking to install (a lot of powerful) LED lights in my kitchen and I want to understand the implications of putting PSUs in my lighting circuit.
I currently have 15 halolite tube lights (16W each). That's 240W @ 240V (so one amp of current, right ?)
