Hi all

Question 1

Is a flood light omitted from over current protection?
I normally go a lighting circuit but this job would be a lot easier if coming from the outside socket, which is part of the ring,
As this is fixed, would it be okay to wire it in 1mm or 1.5mm flex, without over current protection, eg like a spur I guess as this doesn't.

Question 2

Would you be happy feeding a 10w led flood light from a sour socket, as its such a small load?

I would say yes to both but I've had people say no you can't .
 
Customer wants least mess possible, and isn't doing it in 2.5 the same as an infused spur Anyways??
In the osg it states an unfused spur can be one single or double socket or one perminately connected appliance ?

The customer may want ..... But it's your job to install to th regs. My advice is quote to do it properly or walk away.
